Refresh for latest…: Offshore audiences continue to devour Sony’s Venom: The Last Dance with a sophomore weekend of $68.4M in 66 markets for an international box office cume of $227M so far. The running global total after two frames has clicked past the three-century mark, now at $317.1M, which is 4% ahead of Venom: Let There Be Carnage at the same point in release and at today’s exchange rates.
After last weekend’s powerful launch, which was fueled by overseas and a particularly strong debut in China, the international holdover markets were down just 44%; a better showing than the second frames of Let There Be Carnage (-55%) and the first Venom (-59%).
In new markets, the symbiote thrashed into France with $6.5M, coming in 29% above Let There Be Carnage, while Japan grabbed $3.8M, which is on par with the second movie.
The Last Dance again led China box office for the weekend, with a cume through Sunday of $70.6M and Maoyan upping its final prediction to $88.5M there. China is the lead market for the Marvel character’s trilogy-ender.
Rounding out the Top 10 are Mexico ($13.4M), UK ($11.9M), Korea ($9.4M), Germany ($9M), France ($6.5M), India ($6.5M), Italy ($6.3M), Australia ($5.6M) and Spain ($5.3M).
The Imax total is now $25.5M global, including $17.7M from international.
In other good news from Sony, Wayfarer Studios’ It Ends with Us has crossed the $200M mark overseas, now at $200.7M and with final market Japan set to release on November 22. The global total is $349.2M.
Other milestones this weekend include Paramount’s Smile 2 crossing $100M worldwide.
