James Bond drove his Aston Martin past the $500M global mark this weekend, now having grossed $525.4M worldwide. He also sped across $400M internationally with $405.6M through Sunday. As noted above, NTTD has become the only Hollywood movie besides Universal’s own F9 to have reached those milestones in 2021. The weekend was good for $33.1M in 72 combined Universal and MGM markets. The IMAX global cume has risen to $34.2M. Meanwhile, No Time To Die handily crossed the half a billion worldwide mark this weekend, grossing an estimated $525.4M through Sunday. That makes James Bond 25 only the second Hollywood title to get to the $500M milestone since 2019 (the other being Universal’s own F9). At the international box office, 007 has topped $400M with $405.6M through today in a combined 72 Universal and MGM markets. Likewise, apart from F9, NTTD is just the second studio movie to make the four-century benchmark overseas since 2019. As noted earlier this week, NTTD on Wednesday became the No. 2 Hollywood movie globally and overseas of 2021.

 

The fourth offshore weekend for Daniel Craig’s final turn as her majesty’s super agent was good for $33.1M in the UNI and MGM markets. The Universal portion ($28.3M in 48) repped a 37% drop from last session while MGM’s $4.8M in 24 was down 49%. Universal’s total is $326.3M, MGM’s is $79.3M. China releases next Friday and Australia is expecting Mr Bond on November 11.

The Cary Joji Fukunaga-directed installment continues to excel in Europe and Japan. Germany was the top holdover with just a 28% drop and hanging on to No. 1 despite the arrival of Venom 2. The cume there is now $56M, in line with Spectre and Skyfall at the same point of release.

The UK crossed $100M on Bond this session, seeing a 46% dip and grossing $106M through Sunday. That home market leads all play and is running in line with Spectre and Skyfall.

 

 

The Cary Joji Fukunaga-directed installment continues to excel in Europe and Japan. France has cumed $21.6M to date and Japan is at $18.7M, above Skyfall at the same point. The Netherlands has risen to $16M with a scant 3% drop from last weekend and also now above Skyfall at the same point. Russia saw Bond take No. 1 to cume $10.9M after three sessions and approach the lifetime of Skyfall.

Germany was the top holdover with just a 28% drop and hanging on to No. 1 despite the arrival of Venom. The cume there is now $56M, in line with Spectre and Skyfall at the same point of release.

The UK crossed $100M this session, seeing a 46% dip and grossing $106M through Sunday. Bond’s home market leads all play and is running in line with Spectre and Skyfall.

The Top 5 markets are the UK, Germany, France, Japan and Netherlands. This is before 007 gets to China on Friday. The film currently leads presales for the weekend.

Powered by the international box office, and in a continued sign that overseas audiences are eager to return to cinemas for event fare, this was yet another weekend of milestones. MGM/Eon/Universal’s No Time To Die, as projected, crossed the $600M global mark this session, leading offshore play with an additional $51.9M from 72 combined Universal and MGM markets. That lifts the offshore cume to $472.4M and worldwide to $605.8M.

The bulk of the weekend’s business came from China where 007 debuted to an estimated $28.2M, repping the third best start for a Hollywood title in the market this year. While this is slightly lower than projections coming into the weekend, a contributing factor has been the Covid escalation over the past several days. As previously noted, social scores are the best on this Bond of any prior film in the franchise, and we’ve seen that when a Hollywood movie in China has had a high rating and a decent competitive environment, it doesn’t immediately get played off (Free Guy is a recent example). Maoyan is now projecting an RMB 436.3M ($68.2M) full run for NTTD. How things go with the latest Covid outbreak will be a factor, however, as 14 provinces are affected and there have been cinema closures in Beijing.

 

Elsewhere, holds have been strong with already opened markets dipping just 33% in the session. Notable performances this weekend include NTTD’s return to No. 1 in the UK as it becomes the sixth highest grossing film of all time in the market, surpassing both Titanic and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Cary Joji Fukunaga’s take on Bond also broke another record this week after consecutively grossing over £1M for 30 days since release. The UK cume is now $116.4M, in line with Spectre and Skyfall at the same point.

NTTD also had a muscular hold in Germany, down 28% for a $62M cume to date, and France got a boost from school holidays with a 15% dip to cume $26.1M through the fourth frame. In the Netherlands, No Time To Die has become Universal’s biggest release of all time at $18.4M through Sunday. Also as noted above the UK, Germany, France and the Netherlands had great holds, so did Japan (-24%) to cross $20M in the fifth frame. Despite a lockdown in Moscow, Russia ($11.8M) has passed the lifetime of Skyfall and will top Spectre in the coming days.

 

The Top 5 markets to date are the UK ($116.4M), Germany ($62M), France ($26.1M), Japan ($20.4M) and Netherlands ($18.4M).

In IMAX, NTTD opened with $4.4M in China, repping over 15% of the weekend from just 1% of screens. Through Sunday, the running global IMAX total is $39.4M.

Not to put down other movies but when people want to see something they show you. NTTD doesn't have to pull the pandemic card cause OS numbers are absolutely pre-pandemic level great. So yeah, other movies simply didn't generate that kind of interest. 

NTTD is Europe heavy which is doing very good CoVID wise, while other films which have to rely more on Asia or LATAM have been lower.

Judging by OW in germany covid is still affecting movies a bit. Bond would have opened over 1.4 in normal times i would think.

That was due to seating restriction which spread out the business. The final number will reach what it would have done normally.

I do not fully agree tbh, do we have stats for how boxoffice is doing vs before the pandamic. I am saying this cause a lot of people in my circle don't go as often as they did before covid hit. Maybe the higher ticket prices makes up for it (a bit).  Also alot of quite big movies opened in short windows from each other, otherwise these things woudn't happen.
