By Ruiqi Chen, Editor at LinkedIn News — Netflix’s most recent bet on movie theaters has paid off. The streaming giant’s theatrical release of “Knives Out” sequel “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” earned US$9.2 million from Friday to Sunday, outperforming releases from Disney and Steven Spielberg, and making it the highest performing movie per-screen in the U.S. and Canada. Moviegoers told The Wall Street Journal that seeing the film in-person felt “special,” and Netflix’s success could encourage streaming services to release more movies in theaters before offering them online.
