Princess Mononoke Re-Release Earns $1.2M on Opening Day in IMAX

News summary

Studio Ghibli's classic film 'Princess Mononoke' has been re-released in North America in a 4K remastered version, screening in 330 IMAX theatres and grossing $1.2 million on its opening day. This marks a significant achievement, as it outperformed other recent releases like 'Captain America: Brave New World' and 'Mickey 17', securing the #2 spot at the box office behind Disney's 'Snow White'. GKids, the film's distributor, emphasized the value of the theatrical experience in contrast to recent AI-generated art technologies, drawing attention to Hayao Miyazaki's disdain for AI in animation. The film's return highlights its enduring popularity and cultural impact since its original release, which earned $2.4 million in 1997. Miyazaki's hand-drawn animation continues to resonate with audiences, as they celebrate the artistry of traditional filmmaking. The re-release is seen as a testament to Ghibli's legacy and the ongoing appreciation for its masterpieces.
