Cinemas were one of the sectors most affected by the pandemic period. Especially the halls had to keep their doors closed for too long. However, the gradual normalization of life has also led to the reopening of cinemas and intense interest from movie lovers. With each new big film, new records of normal are broken after the pandemic. Venom: Let There be Carnage and No Time to Die, released last weekend, have hit cinemas.
The film Venom 2 set a new record, surpassing $90 million in the United States. The film generated close to $40 million on opening day alone. Let There be Carnage even managed to surpass the opening box office of the first Venom film by $10 million. That’s quite a feat considering the original film grossed around $900 million at the box office. No Time to Die has grossed around $120 million worldwide at the opening box office. Interestingly, No Time To Die hasn’t even been released in China yet. These two stories are very promising for movie theaters.
Now there are new Marvel Cinematic Universe movies on the horizon. Especially with Spider-Man: No Way Home, all these post-pandemic blockbusters are expected to be turned upside down. Previously, Eternals; he’s expected to do big things at the box office. By the end of 2021, at least in terms of cinema, “normalization” seems to have begun gradually.
