DUMBO (2019) | $237.5M Overseas, $352.2M Global

Any predictions?

A difficult movie to predict. Box Office Pro has the domestic total at $179m. Maybe the OS is then somewhere between $250m-350m? I don't know, lol. Just a guess.

I don't think Dumbo is as familiar a tale as other Disney live-action remakes, so I would guess around $300 million OS as well. However, cute animal films are typically a easier sell in foreign markets (translates well across different cultures). It's also been a while since a major film targeted at kids was released (I doubt Wonder Park will make much OS).

There aren't many movies targeting families but I really don't see interest being much higher than say, Mary Poppins. But unlike Poppins, Disney Chanel at least show Dumbo from time to time lol. Maybe 200 OS?

$250m OS - China

$ 50m in China = $300m OS

I think  i overestimate it, most likely $220m-$230m OS

I'm probably the only one who sees 550M+ WW for this.

France OW prediction on par with Cinderella.

totally bombed in SK, about 1/3 of Christopher Robin(Dumbo opened on culture day, while CR on national holiday) maybe less than $5m total 

[salvador-232]

Decent-ish OD for Dumbo in South America. Around 30% ahead of Mary Poppins Returns (although that is a very low bar )

The Tim Burton-directed live-action update on Disney’s 1941 animated classic flapped its way to a $71M start overseas this weekend in 53 material markets. That reps essentially 100% of the global footprint (Turkey and Venezuela open next session). As noted above, the bow is below where sources saw the movie ahead of the debut with Asia the main culprit. Awareness of the character is not as great there and heading into the session there was also prescient concern over whether the pachyderm would find his feet in the region.

 

Overall, Dumbo came in lower than pre-weekend comps like the Burton-produced Alice Through The Looking Glass, which bowed to $75M in like-for-likes and at current rates, and the live-action Cinderella which did $89M.

Remember this prediction from this pro-Disney outlet. 

 

 

Dumbo is slower, old-fashioned family movie. A global opening between $137M-$155M is what we’re hearing at this point in town with overseas between $80M-90M and domestic projections literally wild: Disney thinks it’s in the $50Ms, others in the $60M-$65M range,

[Lucasmessi12]

It looks like it's going to make the numbers I predicted $220m- $ 230m OS.

It made about 250k$ in Viet Nam
