A sequel to Bird Box, one of Netflix’s most critically acclaimed films of all time, was released nearly four and a half years after the original airing taped, starring Sandra Bullock.
The original Bird Box, first released in December 2018, follows the story of a woman (played by Sandra Bullock) who travels with her children for two days while wearing blindfolds to avoid contact with an unknown entity that is destroying the world’s population.
About the release of 2018 Bird Box
John Malkovich (Billions) and Sarah Paulson (American Horror Story) shared the lead roles in Bird Box.
Although Netflix claims that more than 45 million member accounts watched the film (or at least 70% of it), Nielsen said that within the first seven days of its release, Bird Box drew nearly 26 million unique viewers in the United States. Since then, Bird Box has been surpassed in terms of hours watched within its first 28 days of release by only two Netflix films: Red Notice and Don’t Look Up.
