Hanging in second this week is Universals “1917”. Sam Mendes (fresh off a DGA win) and looking set to be favorite heading into the Oscars, delivered around $15.8M domestically, lifting the film (just like “Bad Boys”) past $100M domestic. Internationally, the film added $23.7M giving the film a worldwide total of over $200M. In third this week and destined for a huge loss is “Dolittle” from Universal. Adding just $12.5M the film is still under $50M domestically and only stands at $91M globally. Weigh that against the reported $175M budget and it’s not good news for Universal. Slipping in fourth this week is new release “The Gentlemen”. Guy Richie’s gangster thriller hauled in $11M, and studio STX is planning an expanded release schedule over the coming weeks. As for early totals, the film sits just over $30M, with four territories still to open in. Still in the top five (impressive given the absence of Disney’s “Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker”) is Sony’s “Jumanji: The Next Level”, which added $7.9M domestically and $9.6M overseas to lift the global tally to $738M. Outside the top five is DreamWork’s and Universal’s new release “The Turning”. Raking in $7.3M the critically panned horror also took just $800K overseas. And mentioning “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker”, the film became only the 15th movie of all time to make over $500M at the domestic box office. The most notable limited releases were Roadside’s “The Last Full Measures” which brought in a steady $1.06M from over 600 theaters. Next weekend sees Paramount make their 2020 bow with the release of the Blake Lively starring “The Rhythm Section”. The film was originally due for release last year, however, due to injury to star Lively, production was pushed back. Contribute Hire me
