SUNDAY UPDATE, Refresh for latest…: Warner Bros’ Barbie continued to show its prowess this weekend worldwide, riding a wave of hot pink fun, savvy marketing and sincere message to a powerful $774.5M global through Sunday. This is just the sophomore session with the movie tops at the international box office and worldwide for the second weekend in a row.
The offshore take from this session was $122.2M in 69 markets, just 32% off opening. The international cume is $423.1M (domestic was $93M this weekend for a running North America cume of $351.4M).
Overseas, the Greta Gerwig-directed pic maintained its No. 1 slot in 57 markets with exceptional holds in numerous markets including Taiwan (+37%), Germany (+29%), Hong Kong (+19%), Holland (+11%), Singapore (+10%), China (-11%), Australia (-11%), France (-20%), Argentina (-25%), Indonesia (-27%), Italy (-30%), Spain (-30%) and the UK (-32%).
What’s more, the Margot Robbie-starrer is now the third-biggest film of the year worldwide and the fourth biggest for international.
The Barbies have already surpassed the lifetimes of an extensive list: Ant-Man and the Wasp, Wonder Woman, The Batman, Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Kong: Skull Island, Man of Steel, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, It and Godzilla Vs Kong.
In like-for-like markets and using today’s exchange rates, the film is tracking on par with Frozen II, 92% above Wonder Woman, 195% over Cinderella and 213% ahead of The Little Mermaid.
As for Universal’s Oppenheimer, it too had an incredible hold overseas, dropping just 26% in 78 markets during the sophomore session for an estimated international box office weekend of $72.4M and an offshore cume $226.3M. Globally, this puts the running total on the Christopher Nolan epic at $400.4M.
After just two frames, Oppenheimer is estimated to be the biggest Nolan film of all time in 28 markets including India, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Turkey. In 40, it’s the top non-Batman movie for Nolan including Mexico, Brazil, Norway, Philippines and Chile.
In IMAX, the Cillian Murphy-starrer is now Nolan’s second-fastest ever to $80M worldwide ($80.7M to date). At $24M, this was the second-biggest second weekend ever for an IMAX title in like-for-like markets, and repped 20.2% of the opening frame. IMAX is extending the run an additional week through August 16/17, with plans to bring back IMAX showtimes of the thriller in the late summer/fall, as availability permits.
As noted yesterday (see below), Universal has now crossed $2B at the international box office marking only the fourth time a studio has reached the milestone since the pandemic and the 7th time Universal has reached the threshold.
