‘Kingdom Of The Planet Of The Apes’ Evolving Towards $125M+ Global Debut – International Box Office
Planet of the Apes' $125M Debut: Hit or Miss?
"Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes," produced by 20th Century Studios/Disney, is set to achieve a $125 million global debut. Internationally, the movie has already earned around $31 million through Friday, with a projected total of $70 million overseas. Despite a strong opening, performance in China is tepid, influenced by a recent holiday and a workday, contributing about $11 million to the total.
The film's reception varies by region, with strong showings in Latin America, France, and parts of Europe, benefiting from favorable summer weather. However, critical response in China is less enthusiastic, with lower ratings compared to previous series entries. The top international markets so far include France, China, Mexico, the UK, and Germany, with additional updates expected soon.
