Pixar’s new movie and a horror film starring Christian Bale both came out in theaters this weekend, but they’ve had very different starts at the box office. Pixar’s film is off to a strong beginning, while Christian Bale’s ‘The Bride!’ has opened with much lower ticket sales in both North America and around the world.
Hoppers opens with $45 million+ at domestic box office
Okay, so I just saw the numbers, and Pixar’s Hoppers absolutely crushed it at the box office! It opened at number one with a fantastic $46 million domestically, playing in about 4,000 theaters across North America. Globally, it made another $42 million, bringing the total opening weekend to $88 million worldwide. Honestly, it’s the biggest opening Pixar’s had for an original animated film since Coco back in 2017 – that’s a really good sign!
According to Box Office Mojo, the movie earned $13.2 million on its opening Friday, followed by $19.1 million on Saturday, and $13.7 million on Sunday. Deadline reported that the audience was nearly evenly divided between general moviegoers (52%) and families (48%) during the opening weekend.
The Bride! opens even less than $10 million
The new Warner Bros. film, ‘The Bride!’, earned $7.3 million in North American theaters over the weekend. It also brought in $6.3 million internationally, giving it a worldwide opening of around $13.6 million. According to Box Office Mojo, the domestic total is $7.26 million and the global total is approximately $13.56 million.
According to Variety, the movie didn’t earn as much money during its opening weekend as the studio had hoped. They predicted it would make between $16 and $18 million in the US, but it fell short of that goal.
The movie cost around $90 million to make, and Warner Bros. predicted it would earn between $38 and $40 million worldwide during its opening weekend. However, industry expert Jeff Bock pointed out that horror movies don’t always appeal to a wide audience, and this film’s budget was more expensive than most in the horror genre.
