Godzilla vs. Kong: $48.5m debut sets pandemic record
Godzilla: King of the monsters?
After over a year of theaters experiencing lackluster opening weekends, Godzilla vs. Kong was nothing less than a miracle as the box office is roaring back to life.
According to Deadline, the massive Warner Bros mash-up made $32.2million in its three-day weekend, the best that the pandemic has seen while it racked up $48.5million in its first five days.
The Adam Wingard-directed movie was also a hit overseas as it made $236.9million with a worldwide total of $285.4million in 12 days.
While the numbers would have been considered low at another time, especially with a reported budget of $160million, it exceeded Warner Bros’ expectations.
It has also given hope that moviegoers may be ready to return to theaters after a long break caused by the Covid-19 pandemic.
