A Statista analysis found that the box office has apparently not recovered from the pandemic. In 2019, the box office gross in North America was $11.2 billion. In 2024, box office performance is down 24% from pre-pandemic numbers. In 2020, when Covid-19 hit, box office earnings sank to around $2 billion. Inflation and the Hollywood writers strike could also be playing a role in lackluster ticket sales. (DIGG)
