Fathom's Big Shift into 2024 with Record-Breaking Success

Fathom, a beloved movie distributor for two decades, is set to shatter records in 2024. With a whopping $145 million in gross revenue, they've outdone last year's $100 million by a impressive 45%. To match their growth, they're rolling out a new name: Fathom Entertainment. This change reflects their focus shift from one-off events to longer-running special engagements.

Why the change? Well, after COVID, there's been a drop in major movie releases in theaters. People are looking for unique, engaging content that you can't get at home. Fathom's special events, like the 15th anniversary of "Coraline, " full episodes of "The Chosen, " and "The Blind, " a biopic of Phil Robertson from "Duck Dynasty, " have drawn crowds. These events stay in theaters for at least a week, sometimes even months. Fathom's trick? They create bespoke plans for each film. If it's popular, they keep it around longer. This flexibility has helped them grow. They're grateful to their partners and fans for supporting these changes. Now, they're looking ahead to 2025 with a mix of special engagements and event cinema.
