Sound Of Freedom Box Office Receipts Soar 37% In Second Weekend Of Release

It is very rare for a movie's popularity to grow after the first weekend of wide release.

Here is a PR release from Angel Studios, which bought the rights to distribute it from Disney, after that company with its "Not so secret gay agenda" shelved it for five years.

Angel Studios-a platform and studio empowering filmmakers to crowdfund, create, and distribute films and TV series globally, backed by thousands of Angel investors-is announcing its July cumulative-to-date and second weekend results for its Jim Caviezel-driven film SOUND OF FREEDOM. Angel Studios is projecting over $85 million total cumulative box office revenue through Sunday, with a strong $27 million box office draw in the second weekend of the film's domestic release.

"While the entire summer movie box office lineup is underperforming, our small independent film continues to grow week over week. Driven by millions of fans and supporters, SOUND of FREEDOM has become a national-and soon international-movement for change," said Jared Geesey, SVP of Global Distribution at Angel Studios.

"There have only been 10 wide release movies in box office history that have had a 2nd weekend increase greater than 35% over their opening weekend. All of them did it at Christmas. Angel Studios is the only Studio to do this in the summer blockbuster season with SOUND OF FREEDOM," added Brandon Purdie, Head of Theatrical Distribution for Angel Studios.

SOUND OF FREEDOM is based upon the true story of former government agent Tim Ballard who quit his job to rescue a little girl from sex traffickers in the Colombian jungle.

One ingredient in the box office success is the expansion of the number of theatres showing it, a response to the nearly sold-out crowds that have shown up.
