MatildaTheMusical beats BlackPantherWakandaForever at the U.K. box office.
The runaway success of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has been phenomenally derailed in the United Kingdom by a little girl who loves a good book. Roald Dahl’s Matilda the Musical took $5 million in its opening weekend for Sony Pictures, which was good enough for more than 50% of the entire U.K. box office. The film earned around 50 percent more than Wakanda Forever and five times that of Disney's box office bomb Strange World.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The film will be released worldwide via Netflix, but it has been granted an exclusive theatrical release in the U.K. and Ireland, partly due to being produced by Working Title. It is the third Netflix film currently available in U.K. cinemas, following the limited release of Glass Onion: A Knives Out Story and Lady Chatterley's Lover, which stars Emma Corrin and Jack O'Connell, and has been released in fewer than 25 locations.
