The Jungle Book | 543.1m Overseas | 885.6m Worldwide

[POTUS 2020]

TJB locking 900m WW. 1B out of reach unless SK and Japan go batshit crazy over it.

 

Zoo is going to get 1B though

[Quigley]

NA update shows that weekend will be $43M instead of $39M. Some crazy holds there which we could extrapolate for overseas (and hopfeully the estimates will confirm them).

[picores]

SK trend to embrace good films...i'm expecting a good run there. Japan should do great too....I'm not ruling out 1B, not yet at least.

I think it could do 3M-4M admissions here in SK. so far the buzz is not too great but would fare particularly well in summer with its visual with lighter competition in early June and it could have a Mad Max or Rise of the Planet of the Apes type of run with good word of mouth.

So about a 42.4% drop from last OS weekend.  Decent hold considering CW release.

[PanaMovie]

Disney had more great news with the continued strong overseas performance of The Jungle Book, which took in an estimated $57.1 million from 53 territories.  That brings the film’s overseas total to $432.7 million and global haul to $684.8 million.  Total grosses to date for individual markets include $129.8 million in China, $42.5 million in the United Kingdom, $33.8 million in India, $19.7 million in Mexico, $19.1 million in France, $18.8 million in Australia and $18.7 million in Russia.

145M+ holdovers and 60M+ (Japan, SK, Hk)

 

638M OS and 355M DOM for 993M

 

I believe in 1B!

[Omni]

That Friday estimate must have been uncorrect. 1B still possible, then.

[Heretic]

Should easily top $60m in UK. Incredible run it's having here. 

[Quigley]

I think it will reach $900-920M from existing markets. So it would need $80-100M from South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong to reach $1B. We'll see.

[The Dark Rock]

Monster numbers from India

[Finnick]

Updates on Monday: the OS total is now at 434.8M, more than 2M as predicted yesterday.

[Quigley]

If that is all part of the weekend, then it's $59.2M. 40.1% drop. Not bad but needs smaller drops to reach $1B.

[fastclock]

This film is making money in India:

 

 

#TheJungleBook maintains a STRONG GRIP... [Week 4] Fri 1.78 cr, Sat 3.53 cr, Sun 5.16 cr, Mon 1.76 cr. Total: ₹ 165.84 cr nett. India biz.

That's actually an excellent drop imo. It faced $200.4 million worth of competition from Civil War in most countries.

[Heretic]

Heading for $70m in the UK. Had exchange rates not been so weak, $80m could have been on the table. Amazing.

[Purple Minion]

$700M WW baby! Or did Deadline f*ck up the numbers? Huge international increase compared with Sunday.

 

Deadline: The Jon Favreau-helmed Jungle-naut has a $255.8M domestic gross through Monday and $452.8M internationally. That brings the worldwide cume to $708.6M.

 

Overseas, China is the lead market with $138.8M to become Disney’s third biggest release in the country behind Zootopia ($234.4M/1.52B yuan) and Avengers: Age Of Ultron ($235.5M/1.46B yuan). In India, TJB is the highest-grossing Hollywood release of all time with $34.4M. Other top markets include the UK ($48M), Mexico ($19.9M) and France ($19.4M).

This is insane, if this blows up in SK+Japan, 1B is in play.

[Purple Minion]

It did $7M in China on Monday If it can do an extra $100M there + another $100M in the US, and with the great holds, it may not need SK and Japan to reach the magic $1B.
