About three quarters of the country’s movie theaters are open, but Americans are not going back in significant numbers in the COVID-era, even with new films coming into the marketplace weekly. The faith-based “Infidel,” which stars Jim Caviezel, did the best with $1.5 million from just over 1,700 theaters. Both played in under 500 theaters across the country and neither got much more than $200 per location. “The Nest” earned an estimated $62,000 from 301 locations and “The Secrets We Keep” brought in just under $90,000 from 471 theaters. Christopher Nolan's “Tenet” has only earned $36.1 million from North American theaters to date.
(CNN) - "It: Chapter Two" had a monster weekend, but it came up short of the record-setting success of its predecessor. The follow-up to Warner Bros. 2017's horror hit "It" brought in an estimated $91 million this weekend. According to Warner Bros., "Chapter Two" is also the second largest opening for a horror movie ever behind the original "It." Longer films usually mean fewer showtimes and that can mean less money at the box office. Despite "Chapter Two" not having as big of an opening as its original film, its strong weekend could give momentum to a big fall and winter for Hollywood.
(CNN) - Disney set the record for the highest-grossing year for a studio ever, and it's only July. The company has brought in an industry record $7.67 billion to date at the worldwide box office, it announced on Sunday. That passed the previous record, which was also set by Disney, when it made $7.61 billion at the global box office in 2016. Disney has three films that have made more than $1 billion at the worldwide box office in 2019: "Avengers: Endgame," "Captain Marvel" and "Aladdin." The studio also has the top five highest-grossing films at the domestic box office this year.
