‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Waltzes In With Strong China Start; Global Debut Now Heading to $165M – International Box Office


Venom: The Last Dance has had a better-than-expected start in China, increasing its global box office opening prospects to $165M

Venom in Columbia PicturesSony This is the biggest opening day for a superhero film since Spider-Man: Far From Home in the market, and portends a five-day launch in the upper $30M neighborhood there. The start is also above recent Hollywood releases, though not apples-to-apples since other movies opened across a traditional weekend. As we noted yesterday, Venom: The Last Dance has been looking at a potential $150M global opening with $85M of that from overseas; the latter number now looks to shoot higher (read $100M+) if China delivers a high $30Ms 5-day.
