AMC Entertainment has been tapped to serve as the distributor of Beyoncé’s upcoming concert film.
The move, announced Monday, marked the latest concert film for AMC Entertainment. It will use its distribution arm, AMC Theatres Distribution, and its sub-distribution partners for "Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé," according to a press release.
AMC is also distributing "Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour." That film, coming Oct. 13, produced $26 million in ticket pre-sales in just one day.
The movie theater chain said Monday that the "Renaissance" concert film would start showings as of Dec. 1. That will happen in theaters located in the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

"The release date for other international screenings throughout the world will be announced later in October," AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron said in a Monday morning tweet.
The film "chronicles [Beyoncé’s] intention, hard work as a creative and producer, and her process in mastering her craft to execute the 56-performance, 39-city, record-breaking RENAISSANCE WORLD TOUR," according to AMC’s press release.
The first show of the superstar singer’s "Renaissance" tour took place in May and the last occurred over the weekend. Her tour has attracted over 2.7 million people overall, AMC said.
