Typically, slightly more than half of all dollars sold in tickets goes to the studio/distributor for the first few weeks of its release. This percentage does lower over time. In the end, it works out to about half. (Quora)
They paid about 51.8% of ticket revenue as film rental. No where near the percentages people sometimes think. Regal is a big company and might be able to negotiate slightly better terms but I believe the rest of the industry would be very similar. (RogerEbert.com)
