Jason Reitman’s ‘Saturday Night’ Makes Strong Limited Debut

by Barbara

Columbia Pictures’ Saturday Night, directed by Jason Reitman, opened with a remarkable $265,000, averaging $53,000 per theater—the second-best limited opening of the year. The film’s performance marks the best limited debut since June, when Kinds Of Kindness also launched in five theaters with a $75,000 per theater average. After a lengthy wait for notable releases, Saturday Night has emerged as a standout.

The film earned $108,000 on Friday, $88,000 on Saturday, and is projected to collect $69,000 on Sunday across theaters in Los Angeles and New York, including AMC Century City and AMC Lincoln Square. Scheduled to expand on October 4 before a wide release on October 11, Saturday Night is poised for a successful theatrical run, bolstered by strong reviews and positive word-of-mouth following its premieres at Telluride and Toronto.
