North American theaters ended their box office tour last week. Warner dominated the North American theaters in the last week of 2023, with three films entering the top five at the box office. "Sweet Tea" Timothée Chalamet's new film "Wonka", which has been in theaters for three weeks, once again topped the North American box office list, while DC's new film "Aquaman 2" has experienced a decline in box office"
"Wonka" last week took in US$23.9 million Once again topped the North American box office list
"Wonka", which was released in advance, was pushed back to the second place on the box office list by the new film "Aquaman 2" in the second week. It returned to the top of the box office list last week with a box office of 23.9 million US dollars. In the festive atmosphere of the Christmas holiday and New Year's Day, this "Wonka" full of joy, song and dance proves that this is the movie that holiday audiences really need.
Including New Year's Day, the film is expected to have a total box office of US$31 million after New Year's Day. At the same time, as of the end of last week, the film has earned a total of 142 million U.S. dollars in North America, and the cumulative global box office will reach 368 million U.S. dollars, while the production cost of the film is only 100 million U.S. dollars.
"Aquaman 2" box office fell, only earning 19.5 million US dollars last week
dc After the new film "Aquaman 2" topped the North American box office chart with 28.1 million US dollars in its first week, it suffered a sharp decline last week. It ranked second with only $19.5 million in the second week, and it is expected to be only $26 million including the New Year's Day holiday. As of last week, the cumulative box office in North America was only US$84 million, and the cumulative global box office will reach US$258 million.
As the last superhero movie in 2023, "Aquaman 2" can neither replicate the box office success of its predecessor nor restore the decline of the entire superhero movie. The current North American box office of this movie cannot even be compared with "The Flash" and "Captain Marvel 2", both of which are one of the biggest box office disasters in 2023. There is no doubt that 2023 will be a disastrous year for Warner and DC, because they did not launch a successful superhero movie in 2023.
The animated film "The Flying Ducks" remains in third place on the box office list with US$13 million.
The original animated film "The Flying Ducks" jointly launched by Universal Pictures and Illumination Entertainment ranked third in the box office after its second week of release. With US$13 million, it continues to rank third on the North American box office list, and it is expected to reach US$22.3 million during the New Year's Day holiday. The film's current cumulative box office in North America is US$58.8 million, and its global cumulative box office has exceeded US$100 million.
The musical "The Color Purple" ranked fourth with $13 million.
The new film "The Color Purple", co-produced by Spielberg and Oprah Winfrey, continued to dominate the theaters on Christmas Day, accumulating last week. It earned US$13 million at the box office in theaters, ranking fourth on the North American box office list. It is expected to earn US$17 million after New Year's Day. The film has already earned a total of US$50 million in North American theaters. However, the production cost of the film is also as high as US$70 million, so it depends on the performance in the New Year to achieve profitability.
The film is adapted from the classic Broadway musical of the same name. As early as 1985, Spielberg personally directed a film of the same name. That film also made a strong entry into the Oscar Awards the following year. This year's musical "The Color Purple" is currently regarded as a strong contender for the 2024 Oscars.
Sydney Girl"Sydney Sweeney's R-rated romantic comedy "Anyone But You" ranked fifth in the box office list with US$9 million in its second week of release. After two weeks of release, it has earned a total of US$27.5 million. The production cost of the film is only US$25 million.
Finally, I wish you all a happy new year, good health and all the best in 2024!
