After entering the summer, Hollywood blockbusters are also coming one after another. The new disaster-themed film " tornado " officially landed in North American and mainland theaters last weekend. The film also topped the North American box office last weekend without any suspense. At the top of the list, the global box office in its first week also exceeded US$100 million. However, in comparison, the film suffered a disastrous box office failure in domestic theaters.
The film’s first-weekend box office in North American theaters is currently estimated at US$80.5 million. Without taking into account inflation, the box office result is nearly twice the first weekend box office of the old version of the film in 1996. At the same time, the box office result is also far beyond industry expectations. , when the film was released, the industry's prediction for the film's first weekend box office was only about US$50 million.
At the same time, the film's first weekend performance also set the third best first weekend box office performance in North American theaters this year, second only to the previously released " Inside Out 2" and " Dune 2". This result can be said to be quite good. .
Judging from the global box office, the film earned US$42.7 million in its first week outside North America, and a total of US$123 million in its first week worldwide. However, for domestic theaters, which have always been the largest box office for Hollywood movies, the film did not create a "tornado" in mainland theaters as the title suggests. Domestic theaters only earned about US$1.5 million (11.3 million US dollars) in the first three days of the weekend. Yuan).
It has become normal for Hollywood blockbusters to be underwhelmed in domestic theaters this year. This film is also in a similar situation to last year's global hit film " Barbie ". Of course, the two films also had many similar reasons for their disastrous box office failure in domestic theaters. For example, the film schedule, although it was introduced simultaneously, the film has not many film schedules in mainland theaters; at the same time, the three leading actors, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell, and Anthony Ramos, are relatively unknown in China. For the audience, it is really too passerby.
The production cost of the film is as high as 155 million U.S. dollars. However, with the film’s box office success on the first weekend, the film will definitely not lose money. The only question is how much the film’s final box office will be. After all, this week’s big box office The popular movie " Deadpool 3" will be released soon. The old version of "Tornado" released in 1996 grossed nearly 500 million U.S. dollars at the global box office that year, including 247 million U.S. dollars in North American theaters, becoming the second highest-grossing movie in North America that year. Therefore, this new version of " "Tornado" still needs to continue to work hard if it wants to surpass the old version.
