A new study says the average Star Wars ticket buyer was a 34 year old man.
Guys between the ages of 18 to 49, with the average age of 34, bought advance tickets for the upcoming Star Wars: The Awakens, according to a new study by the theater marketing data firm Movio.
According to reports, the Movio Media market research firm found that women are not that interested in the upcoming Star Wars movie. In fact, a large majority of the advanced ticket buyers were men.
‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens' was co-written and directed by JJ Abrams and takes place 30 years after ‘Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi,” when the rebels crushed the Galactic Empire. While audiences will see some of their favorite actors return to their iconic roles, a new wave of villains and heroes are expected to appear in the new feature film.
‘Star Wars: The Force Awakens” features Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, Kenny Baker, Lupita Nyong'o, Gwendoline Christie and Pip Anderson.
Other data collected from the market research firm found that advanced ticket purchasers spend more money at the movie theaters and tend to go to the movies more often.
