It’s a Top 3 Repeat as Glass Tops the Weekend Box Office

Glass

Glass once again topped the weekend box office earning an estimated $19 million to bring its domestic total to $73.6 million after two weeks. Internationally the film added $23.6 million from 55 markets to bring its foreign total to $89.1 million and a global total of $162.7 million. The film is opened in all markets except China where it doesn’t have an official release date.

In second place was The Upside which brought in an estimated $12.2 million dropping just 18.4%. That brings its domestic total to $63 million. Internationally the film brought in an estimated $1.1 million to bring its international earnings to $6.1 million from 38 markets.

In third was Aquaman which brought in $7.4 million to bring its domestic total to $316.6 million. The film has now earned $1.091 billion making it the top grossing film based on a DC character. It’s also the third largest WB movie of all time and 25th largest worldwide release ever.

In fourth was a new film, The Kid Who Would Be King which earned an estimated $7.3 million. With a budget of $59 million the film had good reviews but the opening day audience gave it just a “B+” CinemaScore. The audience was 53% female and 53% was aged 25 or older. The film also added $1.9 million overseas to bring that total to $3.2 million from 20 markets.

Rounding out the top five was Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse which repeated in that spot. It earned an estimated $6.2 million to bring its domestic total to $169 million. It will likely become the highest grossing domestic release ever for Sony Animation some time this week. Internationally the film added $2.8 million to bring that total to $169.1 million to bring its worldwide total to $338.1 million.

In other comic films…

Dragon Ball Super: Broly dropped 63.3% from last weekend and earned an estimated $3.6 million to bring its domestic total to $29 million. The film has also earned $69.8 million from foreign markets for a worldwide total of $98.8 million.

We’ll be back in an hour for a deeper dive into this year and last year’s comic films.
