The numbers are in, and according to Box Office Mojo, the feature film METALLICA Through The Never “expanded to 589 locations, but in the process lost most of its IMAX screens to (Sandra Bullock film) Gravity. As a result, it plummeted 56 percent to $697,763. So far, the hybrid concert movie has earned just $2.7 million.”
Metallica Through The Never stars Metallica, one of the most popular, influential rock bands in history.

Dane DeHaan portrays Trip, a young roadie sent on an urgent mission, during the Metallica’s roaring live set in front of a sold-out arena.
