As it turns out, for Christopher Nolan‘s much awaited The Odyssey, AMC recorded our highest first-day ticket sales for any studio-released movie title since 2022.
My apologies if you encountered a long ticketing line on the AMC web site and app yesterday.
Fortunately, we still have MILLIONS more available seats for you to catch what is sure to be a global phenomenon.
Ironically, the only first-day AMC ticket sales results since 2022 that topped The Odyssey were for our very own music-oriented projects from our own AMC Theatres Distribution, namely first-day ticket sales for the Renaissance concert film from Beyonce in 2023 and our two Taylor Swift efforts in 2023 and again in 2025.
Other than our early sales for the Beyonce and Taylor projects, The Odyssey first-day dollars in hand outpaced those of the many hundreds of studio-released movies of the past four years.

$AMC 🚨 PRESS RELEASE MAY 26,2026
✅ AMC Entertainment, the largest theatrical exhibitor in the United States and in the world, welcomed more than 5.0 million moviegoers to its theatres across the United States and to its ODEON Cinemas locations internationally during the U.S. Memorial Day holiday weekend, spanning Thursday through Monday. At its U.S. locations, AMC enjoyed its highest-attended Thursday-through-Monday period of 2026, reflecting continued strong momentum at the box office as the industry heads into a busy summer moviegoing season.
✅ Leading the weekend was THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU, with a media-reported $82 million domestically over a 3-day period and around $100 million when including the holiday Monday. The film’s strong debut also marks the fifth movie in the past two months to open to more than $75 million domestically, underscoring the growing consistency of major theatrical releases in 2026.
✅ In addition to the box office performance, demand was strong for collectible items tied to THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. AMC guests sought out the Grogu Pram popcorn vessel, Mando Helmet popcorn bucket, and more. As a result, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU’s movie-themed merchandise program performance is the third best in AMC history during a movie’s opening weekend.
✅ Not to be lost among a strong blockbuster opening, the weekend also featured an impressive hold from OBSESSION, which delivered rare week-over-week box office strength and continued to resonate with audiences. At the domestic box office, OBSESSION earned a media-reported $30-plus million during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. That’s up more than 30% versus its opening weekend. And MICHAEL continued its exceptionally strong run at the box office during the holiday weekend.
✅ These results highlight the sustained appeal of theatrical moviegoing when audiences are presented with compelling, well-marketed films across a range of genres.
✅ AMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron commented:
“We congratulate the talented filmmakers, cast, and crew behind THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU, along with our partners at Disney and Lucasfilm, on delivering a film that has clearly captured the attention of moviegoers around the world. This film stood out as the clear number one title of the weekend, drawing strong attendance across our theatres globally, and it adds to a growing list of successful releases, becoming the fifth film in the past two months to open above $75 million domestically.”
Aron continued:
“The Memorial Day holiday weekend once again demonstrated the power of the big screen experience. Just as importantly, the consistency we are seeing at the box office is unmistakable, with five films in the past two months alone opening above $75 million domestically. At the same time, the continued strength of OBSESSION and ongoing success of MICHAEL shows that audiences are not only turning out for new releases, but are also sustaining strong interest in films with positive word of mouth. When compelling content meets the theatrical experience, the results speak for themselves.”
✅ The strong summer moviegoing season is expected to continue in the weeks ahead, with a steady pipeline of major releases scheduled to arrive in theatres throughout the summer. SCARY MOVIE (June 5); MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE (June 5); DISCLOSURE DAY (June 12); TOY STORY 5 (June 19); SUPERGIRL (June 26); MINIONS & MONSTERS (July 1) all arrive over the next five weekends. Showtimes and tickets are available at https://t.co/omERcV1qIQ and the AMC mobile app.
