“Everyone at LAIKA is elated by the global success of the Coraline re-release and we’re delighted to offer one more chance to see it this year during Halloween festivities,” said David Burke, Laika’s chief marketing and operations officer.
“In addition to becoming Fathom’s highest-grossing release in the US, Coraline set box office records in multiple international territories, including the UK and Mexico, through our partnership with Trafalgar Releasing. We are humbled by the millions of fans around the world who came out to experience Coraline in dazzling remastered 3D on the big screen this summer, making the 15th anniversary a cultural phenomenon,” David added.
According to Laika, the August re-release is now the highest-grossing re-release in the US over the last decade. It also holds the record for the highest lifetime US gross for a stop-motion animated film, surpassing classics like The Nightmare Before Christmas and Chicken Run.
Tickets for the Halloween re-release are now on sale in the US.
