According to Box Office Mojo, METALLICA’s movie, Metallica Through The Never, has earned just $3.2 million at the box office after its third weekend in theaters.
The hybrid concert movie, which was written and directed by Nimród Antal (Kontroll, Predators), officially opened on September 27 for an exclusive week-long run on IMAX screens. The film’s surreal narrative winds its way through the concert footage, in which a roadie played by Dane DeHaan finds himself in an increasingly hostile urban environment while on a mission for the band.
Financed by the METALLICA members themselves at a budget of $18 million, Metallica Through The Never is the first new release via Picturehouse, the full-service independent film marketing and distribution company started in 2005, which reopened its doors with founder Bob Berney at the helm.
