The box office is absolutely on fire right now and a certain fashion sequel is leading the charge. Thanks to some incredible ticket sales Disney has officially crossed a massive financial milestone for the year. Let us dive into how everyone’s favorite high-fashion drama is making serious history at the theaters.
Disney Smashes a Massive Global Record
Disney has officially become the very first movie studio to cross the two billion dollar mark worldwide this year. This huge milestone shows that audiences are flocking back to theaters in massive numbers to catch their latest big releases.
The Fashion Sequel Solves the Puzzle
A huge reason for this big win is the incredible success of the newly released “The Devil Wears Prada 2” movie. The highly anticipated film has been pulling in tons of cash and styling its way right to the top.
Breaking Records Past the Original Film
The brand new sequel has already managed to glide right past the original 2006 film’s entire lifetime earnings. That is a pretty wild achievement considering how much people loved the first movie back in the day.
Weekend Numbers Keep Climbing Higher
During just its second weekend out the movie brought in a whopping one hundred and eighteen million dollars globally. People just cannot seem to get enough of the drama and the fabulous outfits on the big screen.
Domestic Fans Show Huge Support
Back home the movie brought in another forty-three million dollars over the weekend which is a really strong holding number. It seems like a lot of people took their moms out to see it for Mother’s Day.
International Crowds Are Going Wild
The movie is doing even better overseas where it brought in over seventy-five million dollars across fifty-one different countries. It turns out that high fashion drama is a language that absolutely everyone can understand.
Europe Completely Falls in Love
The film secured the number one spot for non local movies in massive markets like the United Kingdom and Germany. Audiences in Italy also showed up in huge numbers making it one of the top countries for sales.
Latin America Joins the Fashion Trend
Over in Brazil and Mexico the movie is absolutely crushing the competition and bringing in millions more. It is officially the top non local release of the year so far in those vibrant regions.
Other Hits Help the Mouse House Win
While the fashion sequel is the big star right now Disney had plenty of other help reaching that two billion mark. Movies like “Hoppers” and “Send Help” along with holdovers from last year kept the momentum going strong.
The Competition Tries to Keep Up
Other big movies like the new Michael Jackson biopic and “Mortal Kombat II” are also out there fighting for your ticket money. It is shaping up to be a very busy and highly entertaining summer at the local cinema.
