Warner Bros.’s “The Flash” and Disney/Pixar’s “Elemental” made theatrical debuts in China that were in line with their soft starts in North America and other international territories. “The Flash” …
“The Flash” captured the top spot in China with a $13.4 million opening weekend , according to data from consultancy Artisan Gateway.
It deposed “Transformers: Rise of the Beasts” which opened a week earlier and which slipped to second place in its sophomore frame. “Transformers” took a 69% fall and recorded $12.4 million between Friday and Sunday in China. That produces a $61.7 million cumulative after ten days in Chinese theaters.
Giant screen systems provider Imax reported that “The Flash” earned $2.3 million of its total on the company’s screens in China and that “Transformers” earned $600,000 at its China sites.“Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” slipped from second place to fourth in its third weekend of release. It earned $3.7 million , for a running total of $41.3 million in China.
Long-playing Chinese film “Godspeed” earned $2.7 million in fifth place. That gives it a cumulative total of $163 million since releasing on April 28.chart, the films’ performance is lackluster and China’s nationwide theatrical recovery momentum is slowing. Across all of China, cinema box office fell to $45.5 million over the weekend, down from $61 million a week earlier.
Artisan Gateway calculates that the year-to-date aggregate is $3.37 billion. That is a 46% improvement on a miserable COVID-affected 2022 and currently some 20% below 2019 levels.
