Overview

  • A24’s English‑dub rollout earned about $1.5 million and ranked No. 13 despite premium formats and a high‑profile voice cast led by Michelle Yeoh.
  • The re‑release spanned roughly 2,228 North American theaters after an earlier subtitled run that opened above $7 million and finished near $16 million.
  • Global grosses now exceed $2 billion, with nearly the entire haul generated in China according to industry trackers.
  • Coverage cites limited marketing resources and overlap with the event‑style launch of Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters, which topped the weekend with about $18 million.
  • The underwhelming weekend further reduces prospects of surpassing Titanic on the all‑time worldwide box office chart.
