'The Batman' is Here to Help the Global Box Office With $110 Million Opening Friday

It is finally opening weekend for Matt Reeves’ highly anticipated The Batman and so far it is off to a killer start at the box office. The film has already grossed $57 million on Friday and is on track for an impressive domestic opening weekend of $120-130 million, but now the international box office numbers for this superhero epic are starting to come in, and they are just as good.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Other notable markets include the UK where the film has made $6.4 million as of Friday which is also its second-highest opening day since the pandemic began. If you include previews, then it bumps that number up to $6.7 million and this gross is ahead of films like Joker, The Dark Knight, and the recent Sci-Fi epic Dune. However, we all know by now that Dune was severely hindered by its HBO Max/theatrical same day and date release from WB.

Spain also is off to a good start with $1.2 million on 1,103 screens and that is on par with The Dark Knight and nearly double the opening of Dune. Like the UK, this is the second-biggest opening day for the region during the pandemic. Other highlights include The Batman making $5.2 million in Mexico, $4.6 million in Brazil, $4.4 million in France, and $4 million in Australia.

The Batman was such a unique experience that read like it was a 3 hour romantically gripping crime novel, and it is showing so far in the box office. These international numbers are a stark reminder that The Dark Knight is a global pop culture icon and, given the 3-hour length leading to less possible showtimes, these numbers should only be seen as a shining success.

Damn was expecting bigger numbers but that is still good 🙌🏼
