\n\tSATURDAY UPDATE:<\/strong> Black Man<\/em> added a handful of markets on Friday and has now cumed $30.2M<\/strong> through its first three days at the international box office. Friday rocked $15.8M<\/strong> with the Dwayne Johnson-starrer ranking as the No. 1 US movie in all 76 markets in release. With these results, we are still eyeing the $70M range for the opening weekend overseas.<\/p>\n

\n

\tIn new starts, Friday added the UK<\/strong> with $2M on 1,500 screens and ranking a clear No. 1 with 58% share of the Top 5 films. The results are +2% over Shazam!<\/em>53% ahead of Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle<\/em>129% above Jungle Cruise<\/em> and 291% ahead of skyscraper<\/em>. IMAX share was a very solid 9% of the total box office.<\/p>\n

\n

\tAlso joining the fray, Spain<\/strong> debuted on Friday to $587K on 689 screens. Black Man<\/em> dominated the market with nearly 60% share of the Top 5; premium formats are performing very well capturing 4.6% of the total box office. Opening day results are tracking ahead of Jumanji 2<\/em> (+38%), Shazam! (+79%), skyscraper<\/em> (+187%) and Jungle Cruise<\/em> (+231%).<\/p>\n

\n

\tCurrently, the Top 5 markets through Friday are the UK<\/strong> ($2M), Mexico City<\/strong> ($1.9M), Brazil<\/strong> ($1.8M), india<\/strong> ($1.7M) and Australia<\/strong> ($1.7M).<\/p>\n

\n

\tAnecdotally, we are hearing the family play is stronger than expected. <\/p>\n

\n

\tMore to come on Sunday\u2026<\/p>\n

\n\tPREVIOUS, FRIDAY:<\/strong> Warner Bros\/New Line\/DC’s Black Man<\/em> began rolling out at the international box office on Wednesday, and through Thursday has rocked to $13.8M<\/strong> from 57 markets. Today adds the UK and Spain as overseas release continues.<\/p>\n

\n

\tInitial markets to go on Wednesday included France<\/strong> and Korea<\/strong>. In the former, the Dwayne Johnson-starrer has grossed $1M through its first two days. In Korea, the movie leads all play by a wide margin. It is following the typical cycle in the market of a top start on Wednesday, then a drop on Thursday, and a bounce on Friday and has a running cume of $1.3M through today (that total is not reflected in the two-day offshore cume above).<\/p>\n

\n

\tA notable start on Thursday was india<\/strong> with $1M which marks the second biggest ever debut for Warner Bros and the biggest also for DC. The Diwali holiday is ahead.<\/p>\n

\n

\tElsewhere, Mexico City<\/strong>‘s $850K Thursday start was 9% above Johnson-starrer Jumanji: The Next Level<\/em> and 63% over his 2018 actioner skyscraper<\/em>. <\/p>\n

\n

\tOf Australia<\/strong>the $750K Thursday opening was 80% higher than skyscraper<\/em> and 87% above Shazam!<\/em> <\/p>\n

\n

\tWhile an overseas weekend doesn’t really get borne out until we get Friday numbers, we are expecting Black Man<\/em> to land close to our projected opening range; critics are down on it, but fans are faithful. As Anthony reported, the domestic previews were robust. <\/p>\n

\n

\tAudiences are hungering for new product, and, wherever it lands, let’s hope this is the kickstart for times ahead.<\/p>\n

\n

\tMore to come throughout the weekend\u2026<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
