franchise topped the domestic box office this weekend with $34.5 million according to studio estimates on Sunday. By the end of the Monday holiday, Sony expects that total will rise to $42 million.
The ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike meant Washington was unable to stump for the movie, which was directed by his frequent collaborator Antoine Fuqua and brings his vigilante character Robert McCall to Italy’s Amalfi coast. While the lack of a major star on a promotional tour would normally be considered a liability for a film’s box office potential,may be the rare exception that could withstand a rollout without Washington’s help simply because it’s a recognizable franchise.
The Universal film opened in China on Wednesday, playing on 35,000 screens, where it is estimated to have made $30.3 million in its first five days. A significant portion of that came from 736 IMAX screens.
