Amazon MGM's "Project Hail Mary" is setting records for the company, earning over $300 million globally since its theatrical opening two weeks ago. This marks the best performance for an Amazon MGM film ever. The film, starring Ryan Gosling, has only seen a 32% drop in ticket sales from its first weekend in the U.S. to its second weekend, compared to a nearly unheard of 5% decline internationally. The success of the film is seen as a key turning point for Amazon MGM, giving the distributor its first $100 million plus domestic box office earner. The company's upcoming slate includes features like "The Sheep Detectives," a comedy murder mystery due out in May, and "Masters of the Universe" set for June.
