Netflix Breaks Silence on Box Office with 'La Bola Negra' Debut
Netflix has publicly reported box office grosses for the first time in its history, revealing that its Spanish-language drama 'La Bola Negra' earned $277,500 from four U.S. theaters. This marks a significant strategic shift for the streamer, which has historically avoided disclosing theatrical revenue. The film, an awards contender, achieved the second-highest per-screen average for a non-English language movie, signaling a new approach to theatrical releases as Netflix faces stock pressure and recent layoffs.
