The DungeonsAndDragonsMovie has passed another major milestone at the global box office.
After more than a month of release, Paramount’s Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves has passed perhaps its final major milestone at the box office. This is a bittersweet bit of news, because on the one hand, the fantasy comedy film is still drawing crowds to theaters, but on the other, it has inarguably fallen short of commercial expectations. As it winds up its global run and reaches new fans on PVOD, Honor Among Thieves has passed the $200 million mark at the worldwide box office.
The film has grossed nearly $91 million domestically and another $111 million from overseas territories, for a running global haul of $202 million. The film’s biggest international territories are the U.K. , China , France , Australia , and Germany .
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Honor Among Thieves opened strong in the last weekend of March. It grossed $37 million domestically and $72 million worldwide in its three-day debut. The film had a rough 63% fall in its second weekend domestically, when it was steamrolled by The Super Mario Bros. Movie. In its third weekend, the film grossed $7.5 million, followed by $5.5 million in its fourth weekend, $4.1 million in its fifth weekend, and $1.
A Variety of Reasons Could Have Caused This Underperformance These are all promising signs, so what went wrong? Primarily, Honor Among Thieves was simply too expensive to turn a profit, at least theatrically. Nor did the source material — the tabletop game Dungeons & Dragons — appeal to wider audiences. It’s also possible that the cast didn’t include enough bankable movie stars; Chris Pine is the most high-profile member of the roster. He plays the bard-turned-thief Edgin in the film.
Directed by Jonathan Goldstein and John Francis Daley, Honor Among Thieves follows this ragtag band as they go on an epic quest to find a relic, and also help Edgin reconnect with his daughter and save her from the clutches of Hugh Grant’s villainous Forge.
