Variety: Fahrenheit 9/11 may do $100 million, showing on 2000 screens
soon
"Fahrenheit 9/11" went a long way toward recouping its expenses
this weekend, and with a wide expansion of runs in the works over
the next 10 days, an eventual domestic cume approaching $100
million is not out of the question.
"We were already getting calls from theaters begging for prints,."
Lions Gate prexyprexy Tom Ortenberg said Friday. IFC prexy
Jonathan SehringJonathan Sehring said, javascript:checklength(document.vbform);"Harvey said he thought we
could be on more than 2,000 within a week or two."
Moore will likely eventually see a profit, too.
"I've never seen a dime of what's called the backend," Moore said
Sunday. "Maybe I'll get lucky this time." He pledged to use his share
of the profits to "make more films like this one" as well as to donate
some portion to civil liberties groups and charities.
