Disney’s Encanto Opens on nearly 4,000 Screens for a Huge Thanksgiving Holiday Weekend Start.
Utah’s Larry H. Miller Megaplex Theatres scored five of the top 10 spots for the holiday opening of Disney’s Encanto, according to industry tracking sources. The only theatre complexes to top Megaplex for the Encanto opening were located on Disney properties in California and Florida.
In all, eight Megaplex locations ranked in the top 40 of the 3,980 theatres opening Encanto in North America.
“During this season of Thanksgiving, we’re especially grateful to our local movie fans who have continued to support all of our Larry H. Miller Megaplex Theatres locations,” said Blake Andersen, president of Larry H. Miller Megaplex Theatres. “With the openings of more big movies coming soon, including Westside Story, Spider-Man: No Way Home, The Matrix 4, and many more, we’re looking forward to an exciting holiday season between now and the Christmas holiday.”
The Wall Street Journal and the industry tracking service Comscore recently recognized Utah as the state having the best recovery in the film exhibition industry.
