The Hunger Game Beats Twilight

Fandango announced today that the upcoming film the Hunger Games has broken the record for advance ticket sales, which was previously held by The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. Though the film is still a month away from release, hundreds of show times have been sold out.

“Yesterday we saw the biggest first day advance ticketing sales in our company’s nearly 12-year history – which is especially impressive for a March release and a non-sequel,” said Executive Vice President and General Manager, Rick Butler.

The film is set to hit theaters March 23rd.
