Box Office: ‘Godzilla x Kong’ Stomps Up $37 Million Opening Day


Legendary and Warner Bros.' 'Godzilla X Kong' debuted above expectations and is tracking for an opening weekend above $65 million.

A 90-year-old ape and a 69-year-old reptile are taking over domestic charts this weekend, as Warner Bros. and Legendary Entertainment ‘s “ Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire ” scored $37 million from 3,861 venues across opening day and preview screenings. It’s an impressive debut that puts the monster-mash well ahead of the pace that was projected earlier this week, which had pegged an opening just north of $50 million. Neon’s nun horror film “Immaculate” looks to round out the top five, with industry rivals projecting a three-day gross of $3.1 millionand a 41% drop for the Sydney Sweeney shocker.
