Theater Averages: Dragons Look Down on the Other New Releases
February 27, 2019
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World was the only film in the $10,000 Club earning an average of $13,506. The best limited release was Wrestle, which earned $6,027 in its lone theater.
There were very few other new limited releases, but at least none of them bombed. The Iron Orchard managed an average of $5,733 in 8 theaters, despite its reviews. Total Dhamaal earned just under $1 million in just over 200 theaters for an average of $4,898. That’s excellent for this type of release. The widest limited release of the week was Run the Race. This film earned an average of $2,533 in 853 theaters. A lot of films playing in that many theaters would open below the Mendoza Line.
This past week also saw milestones reached for a few Per Theater Chart alumni:
