The film has now set a new record for single-day advance ticket sales revenue for one movie at AMC: $26 million. That breaks the previous record of $16.9 million set by Spider-Man: No Way Home. It set that new record less than three hours after tickets went on sale.
And speaking of the number 13, Taylor has now scared away a big horror film planned for the fall.
The Exorcist: Believer originally planned to debut October 13 in order to be in theaters on Friday the 13th. But since that's now the day that Taylor's movie premieres, the horror sequel has been moved to October 6, Variety reports.
