1 Box Office Statistic Proves IMAX Was Right To Snub Tom Cruise For Christopher Nolan

New statistics uphold IMAX’s decision to give screens to Oppenheimer instead of Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One. Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, starring Tom Cruise, premiered on July 12, going on to make $552.7 million at the time of writing, which is less than any Mission: Impossible movie since 2006. A large part of this lukewarm gross has been blamed on the fact that it came out one week before the buzzy July 21 dual release of Barbie and Oppenheimer, which broke box office records and resulted in an extended IMAX run for the Christopher Nolan-helmed Oppenheimer.
