Thursday Night Report: New Mutants Earns $750K from Domestic Previews

August 28 Update: Disney reports this morning that The New Mutants earned an estimated $750K from domestic previews that began at 6pm Thursday night.

Comparisons may be somewhat strained at this stage for all of the reasons previously discussed in regards to the theatrical re-opening and recovery process during the era of COVID-19, including the fact that — while relatively low profile for the genre — this remains a film with inherent pent-up demand from some franchise fans.

With that caveat in mind, New Mutants‘ Thursday night take was generally in line with expectations ahead of release and in step with the last Thursday previews reported before the industry’s shutdown back in March. At the time, Bloodshot, I Still Believe, and The Hunt opened to $1.2 million, $780K, and $435K, respectively.

New Mutants‘ Thursday performance also registered ahead of other horror-thriller pics released in early 2020, such as The Turning ($425K), Gretel and Hansel ($475K), and Brahms: The Boy 2 ($375K). Compared to summer genre films, the X-Men spin-off came in north of last August’s 47 Meters Down: Uncaged ($500K).

More updates to follow throughout the weekend. Check out our earlier Weekend Forecast here.

Cinemark Q3 Earnings Reports: CEO Mark Zoradi Speaks on “Dynamic Theatrical Windows,” the Success of Private Rentals

Many of the questions asked of Cinemark CEO Mark Zoradi during this morning’s quarterly earnings call were about streaming and theatrical exclusivity—leading the CEO to offer some updates on their evolving windows policy as well as clarify other points about the chain’s status moving into the fourth quarter of 2020. At AMC’s Q3 earnings call, held earlier this week, CEO Adam Aron touted the chain’s deal with Universal, which can see the theatrical exclusivity window for that studio’s titles shrink from the traditional 72 days to as little as 17 at AMC theaters. Cinemark, Zoradi announced, will join AMC in playing upcoming Universal and Focus releases The Croods: A New Age , Freaky , and Let Him Go when they open in theaters this month. Cineworld, owner of Regal, the country’s second largest chain, has made no announcements about reopening the bulk of their theaters in the coming weeks, though none of the handful of Regal theaters open in NY and CA list showtimes for Focus Features’ ...
