Which was the first Andrew Lloyd Webber musical to be made into a motion picture?

The first Andrew Lloyd Webber musical to be made into a motion picture was "Jesus Christ Superstar" (1973). The musical is a rock opera with music by Webber and lyrics by Tim Rice. The musical started as a rock opera concept album before its Broadway debut in 1971. Both the Broadway musical and the movie have been mostly sung-through, with little spoken dialogue.

In the film, it recounts the last days of Jesus Christ (Ted Neeley) from the perspective of Judas Iscariot (Carl Anderson), his betrayer. As Jesus' following increases, Judas begins to worry that Jesus is falling for his own hype, forgetting the principles of his teachings and growing too close to the prostitute Mary Magdalene (Yvonne Elliman). After Jesus has an outburst in a temple, Judas turns against him.

"Jesus Christ Superstar" is a musical drama that was directed by Norman Jewison. It was produced by Jewison and Robert Stigwood. The co-writers of the screenplay are Jewison and Melvyn Bragg. The film's cast featured Neeley, Carl Anderson, Yvonne Elliman, Barry Dennen, Bob Bingham, and Kurt Yaghjian.

Neeley and Anderson were nominated for two Golden Globe Awards in 1974 for their portrayals of Jesus and Judas, respectively. Although it received criticism from the public and critics, film reviews were generally positive. "Jesus Christ Superstar" grossed $24.5 million at the box office and earned $10.8 million in North American in 1973, against an estimated production budget of $3.5 million.
