International Box Office: Dumbo’s International Flight

April 3, 2019

Dumbo

Dumbo opened in first place with $71.0 million in 53 markets during its opening weekend on the international chart. This is about as good as its debut here. The film’s biggest market was China, but it only made $10.75 million during its opening weekend there. It did relatively better in the U.K. and in Mexico. The film earned first place in both markets with $7.92 million in 666 theaters and $7.71 million respectively. There are no more major markets for the film to open in, so it will have to rely on long legs to break even any time soon.

Captain Marvel was pushed into second place with $26.4 million in 54 markets for totals of $636.8 million internationally and $990.6 million worldwide. The film hit $1 billion on Tuesday, becoming the seventh installment in the MCU to reach that milestone.

Us remained in third place this past weekend earning $22.6 million in 60 markets for a total of $46.3 million internationally. South Korea was the biggest new market, as it earned first place with $5.08 million on 1,132 screens over the weekend for a total opening of $6.95 million. It also opened in first place in Australia with $2.73 million on 319 screens.

Song of Youth rose to first place in China with $11.74 million over the weekend for a running tally of $32.65 million after two weeks of release.

The Human Comedy opened in third place in China and fifth place internationally with $9.28 million.
