‘Everything Everywhere All at Once’ Scores Best Per Theater Average Since ‘No Way Home’
thewrap.comA24 reported an estimated total of $509,659 for an average of just under $51,000 for the weekend. By comparison, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” had a per screen average of just under $60,000 thanks to its historic $260 million opening in wide release in December.
