Oscar nominations resulted in an immediate box-office boost on Tuesday, led by frontrunner The King’s Speech, which saw revenue surge 66% by the end of the day.
The King’s Speech received 12 noms, the most of any film. The Weinstein Co. release grossed $1.1 million on Tuesday at the domestic box office, compared to $635,465 on Monday. Film’s domestic cume is $59 million. Separately, Internet ticket vendor Fandago reported Wednesday that tickets sales for The King’s Speech were up 76%.
Paramount’s True Grit, which received 10 nominations, was up 41% on Tuesday, grossing $766,901 for a domestic cume of $139.3 million.
Ordinarily, a day-over-day gain of 20% would be considered solid.
Paramount and Relativity Media’s The Fighter, picking up seven Oscar nominations, was up nearly 46%, grossing $466,178 for a cume of $73.5 million.
Black Swan was up more than 37% after nabbing five nominations. Pic’s cume is $84.4 million.
The Oscar bump should last well into the weekend.
