BIG HERO 6 | 435.3 M overseas | 657.8 M worldwide

[Fullbuster]

Higher than HTTYD2 would be great given it would be the biggest 2014 animated movie, so in no way a disappointment.

[Hernan Gonzalez]

Screendaily: "Big hero 6 marches into around nine markets this weekend led by Germany and South Korea and has generated $221.9m via Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures International."

[Asyulus]

Im hoping that this will do 500m WW so 2014 helds the record of most 500m movies.

Do you mean $500m OS? It's likely, if it does pretty good in China and SK

Let's hope for the best, I won't make predictions

[Quigley]

Big Hero 6 has done really well this past week. Its as-of-Sunday cume was $215.6M, $3.4M more than the estimate. It has also made $221.9M by Wednesday (presumably). This means it made $6.3M in three days, or 60% of the $10.5M weekend total. That is a very high percentage for January weekdays and I presume it has to do with summer holidays in countries of the southern hemisphere (?). This weekend will also be interesting as we will finaly get an idea of how well the film will play in Northern Europe (Czech Republic, Germany, Austria, Estonia and Finland) as well as South Korea. See you on Sunday!

Will it even get a release in China?

[yjs]

Will it even get a release in China?

It did get a release date and not just that, it also got an IMAX treatment.

^^^ Updated up to 1/18/2015 based on the new actual, Venezuela number and a few changes in some countries. BOM has some updated countries, but unfortunately not all.

[TalismanRing]

Wow the Venezuela # is huge - a shame that doesn't actually translate into much actual money for the studio.

[Fullbuster]

Oh it's bigger in Venezuela than Brazil, quite shameful given Brazil is a much bigger market.

[CelestialFairyIX]

Add around $20 million from the UK, $15 million from SK, $25 - 30 million from Japan (excluding it's already earned amount), $25 - 30 million from China (keeping it low so I won't get disappointed), and around $50 million from other markets, you have around $120 - 125 million in addition to its already earned $428.9 for a WW cumulative of around $553.  I think BH6 will have very little problem hitting that mark and may even hit $600+ considering how well it has been received in Southeast Asia and other markets as well!  GO BIG HERO 6! *fist bump* 

[hirohamada]

Just sharing my thoughts, I think the gross should end up something like that:

Current Gross: $429 million

FUTURE

Domestic: $3 million

Foreign Holdovers (except Japan): $15 million (looking at Australia, Brazil and Venezuela, $20 million seems likely too)

Japan: $30 million (hopefully)

South Korea: $30 million (should be able to do more I hope, considering the film is having impressive legs in Asia)

Germany: $40 million (if it does around Tangled and Frozen)

UK: $45 million

France: $44 million

China: $60 million (remember, Big Hero 6 is doing very well in Asia)

Other Future Players: $45 million

If these figures hold true, the film should finish at $741 million worldwide or somewhere in that zone, and I hope this is so.

[Hernan Gonzalez]

Welcome to the forums Hiro!! I like your predictions!

I think you are asking to much to the european countries. I would be happy with $25m in France and Germany and $30m coming from the UK. But I have faith in China, if 2 singing princesses did $50m there, Baymax should easily do $60m+

It will never do that in France, my country, it's what Frozen grossed.

However, as Henry said $25m would be great

 

And welcome

[Chriss]

Yeah, in Europe it probably won't break out like Frozen did. In China however, I see it easily topping 100m.
