In a year that has not seen many triumphs for superhero films in terms of revenue, one film has managed to consistently outperform its box office predictions. ‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ has shown a remarkable ability to keep soaring, crossing the $500 million milestone in global earnings. As of Tuesday, it had accumulated $506.3 million. On the domestic front, the film has raked in $290.4 million, with the international box office chipping in $215.9 million, according to Deadline. These figures align with the weekend’s forecast.
The top five international contributors to the box office revenues for ‘Across the Spider-Verse’ thus far are China with $42.5 million, followed by the UK, Mexico, Australia, and Brazil, bringing in $26.1 million, $24.2 million, $15 million, and $10.4 million respectively. During its release in Japan last weekend, it managed to earn $2.8 million, a considerable 82% increase from its predecessor, 2018’s ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’. The film recently premiered in Korea, its last major market, where it made $596K (including previews), ranking second to a local film, ‘The Roundup: No Way Out’. Remarkably, ‘Across the Spider-Verse’ has consistently exceeded expectations since its debut weekend. While initially projected to launch with $80 million, the film pulled off a stunning $120 million opening. Earning a 96% Fresh score from critics on Rotten Tomatoes and a 95% audience score, it has secured its position as Sony’s most successful animated release to date.
