Victory for THE HOLY GRILL: Strong cinema debut and number one in the cinema charts

THE HOLY GRILL hits the ground running and immediately takes the lead in German cinemas. With around 350,000 tickets sold on its opening weekend, the comedy shoots straight to number one in the cinema charts. A debut that sets new standards.
And the pace remains high. After just one week, THE HOLY GRILL breaks the 500,000 viewer mark, and after the second weekend, it has already sold 850,000 tickets. These figures make it clear that this film is not just a short-lived hype, but a real crowd-puller.
Marcus H. Rosenmüller hits the mark with his biting social comedy. Punchlines fly every second, the conflicts are close to reality, and the ensemble clearly relishes the verbal sparring. THE HOLY GRILL provokes, entertains, and ensures full theaters and loud laughter at the same time.
This makes the film not only the most-watched new release, but also sets several records: best start for a local production at STUDIOCANAL, strongest opening for a film by Marcus H. Rosenmüller, and a clear leader at the box office. Everything indicates that this success is far from over. Barbecue season is starting early, and THE HOLY GRILL is right at the front of the pack.
THE HOLY GRILL is showing nationwide in cinemas, distributed by STUDIOCANAL. It was directed by Marcus H. Rosenmüller, with a screenplay by Dietmar Jacobs and Moritz Netenjakob. The main roles are played by Hape Kerkeling, Christoph Maria Herbst, Fahri Yardim, Anja Knauer, Friedrich Mücke, and Gaby Dohm, among others. The film was funded by NRW, the FFA, the FilmFernsehFonds Bayern, and Nordmedia.
