Rian Johnson is looking to bring 'Glass Onion' back to theaters.
Following the remarkable success of Netflix's Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery on its limited theatrical release, its director and creator Rian Johnson has been speaking about his desire to see the film return to the big screen on the film starts streaming on Netflix in three weeks' time.
Johnson revealed he's been in discussions with the streaming giant following the limited run over Thanksgiving which saw the movie bring in a reported $15 million. Glass Onion was the widest film release by Netflix for an original movie, with its one week run seeing the film released on roughly 600 screens, playing at the three biggest movie chains in the country: AMC, Regal and Cinemark, in a first for Netflix.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Any theaters we can get it into at any point I'm pushing for. I want more people to have the opportunity to be able to watch it. Once it's on the service it will be available to theaters and we're exploring what form that can take. I'll take as much as I can possibly get. But a lot of that has to do with what the theaters are willing to do, what makes sense. We were very interested in how it did. We wanted it to do incredibly well for a lot of reasons.
Netflix CEO Reed Hastings admitted that "lots" of money was left on the table by not giving Glass Onion a wide release. "It's a promotional tactic like film festivals, and if it works well we will do more of it," he said. "We are not trying to build a theatrical business, we are trying to break through the noise."
Glass Onion streams on Netflix from December 23. It also stars Edward Norton, Janelle Monáe, Kathryn Hahn, Leslie Odom Jr., Dave Bautista, and Kate Hudson. You can check out the trailer below.
