IMAX positioned for market share gains in 2025 with high-grossing releases
The North American box office is expected to have brought in $8.5 million during 2024, marking a 4% year-over-year decline, as sporadic shortfalls were offset by various outperformance, analysts at Wedbush believe. “Overall, the year began slow, impacted by the SAG-AFTRA strikes, but various titles piqued moviegoer interest throughout the year,” analysts wrote in a note to clients.
