Refresh for latest…: Disney’s Lilo & Stitch continued to sew up strong business in its third weekend, with the global cume now at $772.6M as it closes in on $800M WW in the coming days. The international box office tally through Sunday is $436.8M after a $67.7M offshore frame (-47%).
Paramount/Skydance’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, meanwhile, has topped $450M worldwide with $450.4M through today. The offshore hold was also -47%, with another $40.6M contributing to the running $301.2M international box office.
Before we look at more detail on the above, and other holdover play, the wide new entry this session was Lionsgate’s John Wick spinoff Ballerina. The Ana de Armas-starrer, which is largely funded from foreign sales, came in below pre-weekend projections with $26M in 82 offshore markets for a $51M global debut. The top overseas starts on the Len Wiseman-directed actioner are China ($3M), UK ($2.5M) and Mexico ($1.9M) – in each of those markets, the film was the No. 1 new opener. Lionsgate self-distributes in the UK and Latin America.
Ballerina will release in Japan and Italy in the weeks ahead; already on Tuesday, it opens Sicily’s Taormina Film Festival. For more detail on Ballerina, see Anthony’s deep dive here.
Turning back to Lilo & Stitch, the No. 2 studio release of the year overseas, it’s still the No. 1 non-local film in all material markets across Europe (save Finland and Norway) and everywhere in Latin America.
Japan was new this session, and is the final market to join the party. It opened No. 1 there with $4M to rep the 3rd highest opening for a studio title in 2025 to date, just 2% below A Minecraft Movie. Elsewhere, it is the highest grossing film of the year in France, Italy, Spain, Brazil and Mexico, among others.
Here are the Top 5 to date: Mexico ($56.8M), UK ($42.2M), France ($30.4M), Brazil ($28.2M) and Germany ($23.7M).
In Mission: Impossible news, the Tom Cruise-starrer’s 66 markets this weekend were led by China where it was No. 1 for the second frame in a row. The total there is now $47.5M with Maoyan predicting a $62M finish. It’s easily the biggest Hollywood movie of the year so far there.
The current Top 5 is rounded out by the UK ($27.8M), Japan ($23.4M), Korea ($20.5M) and France ($17.7M).
In Imax, M:I 8 has grossed $69.1M globally which reps a franchise-best 15.3% of the overall global total for the Filmed For Imax movie. The international cume in the format is $38M.
Also in holdover play, Sony’s Karate Kid: Legends added $10M in 57 overseas markets for a $38.6M offshore cume and $74M global to date. Spain, France and Japan open in August.
And, New Line/Warner Bros’ Final Destination Bloodlines also saw a 47% drop, adding another $8.1M from 75 markets for an offshore cume of $133.6M and a global take of $257.2M.
