Cineplex says its box office sales are approaching pre-pandemic levels this spring as franchise films draw people to the theatre.
the period of April 1 to June 11 saw box-office revenues of $134.9 million, or 88 per cent of the same period in 2019.
June’s strong numbers so far were attributed largely to the success of ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse,’ “which established a record for the highest opening for the first weekend in June,” the company said. “In addition to strong consumer demand, we are pleased with the quantity and quality of compelling films scheduled for June and beyond.”
