The US box office is down by more than $1.5 billion compared to this time last year, as the movie industry remains frozen

The 2020 US box office is at $1.816 billion this year, and way down compared to this time last year, when it was at $3.37 billion, according to Comscore.

China's theatrical industry, which is the second biggest in the world, has also been hit hard and lost nearly $2 billion in the first two months of the year compared to the same time period last year. The US box office has taken a huge blow from the coronavirus pandemic. The domestic box office was at $3.37 billion by this time in 2019, compared to $1.816 billion this year for a 46.2% decrease, according to Comscore. The 2020 box office will always have an asterisk next to it, though, as most theaters closed in mid-March to help slow the spread of the coronavirus .
