Cats is a musical movie which is based mainly on the stage musical of the same title, written by Andrew Lloyd Webber in 1981.  Les Misérables’ Tom Hooper directed the film with a significant cast consisting of  James Corden, Judi Dench, Jason Derulo, Idris Elba, Jennifer Hudson, Sir Ian McKellen, Taylor Swift and Rebel Wilson. However, it just did not work out and became a huge flop. On the estimated budget around $100 million, it grossed only $75 million from the box office. The movie also earned 6 Golden Raspberry Awards out of 8 nominations in 2022.
Amsterdam just premiered this summer. Despite the fact that director David O. Russell is a four-time Oscar nominee, he failed in making another successful movie. It features well-known  Christian Bale, Margot Robbie, Chris Rock,  Anya Taylor-Joy, Zoe Saldaña and Swift. Yet this thrilling comedy drama only brought 20th Century Studios only $2.6 million (domestically) on a $80 million budget. 
Seemingly, Swift does not have her fortune on screens. Both movies received negative reviews from critics and audiences. Somehow, Taylor Swift has become a blowback for the next movies that she will star in. Most importantly, director Russell is involved in several allegations about his abuse at the workplace. This would also be a factor to stop people from going to theaters. 

#2. It Is Not Her Fault To Blame

Bad Blood singer has a huge and enthusiastic fandom, Swifties. They are actively supporting her career by buying the albums, streaming her music and showing their love on Twitter. It might be one of the reasons why directors cast her in their movies. However, a large fandom will not help a bad movie. 
Moreover, her performance is not that bad since it hardly received aggressive comments from netizens. But the screenwriting and direction matter the most for a movie. It seems like these movies fail with these aspects. 
Being a crazy cat person, Swift is understandable for her participation in Cats. But her role in Amsterdam is even more questionable, notwithstanding her appearance only lasts for a few minutes. And she lies down most of the time. As the cast from them are really fascinating, the problems might lie in their post-productions.
