INTERNATIONAL NUMBERS
Expanding to a handful of key markets this weekend,
Universal/DreamWorks Animation’s How To Train Your
Dragon: The Hidden World swooped into the top spot on
the international box office chart with a $40.2Mframe. This
lifts the overseas running total to $84.4M from 41 markets so
far in release. Universal took a long lead on Dragon
3 offshore, going out in Australia just after the New Year to
take advantage of the peak summer holiday season there
Bowing in 23 international markets this session, the Dean
DeBlois-directed HTTYD3was No. 1 in 20 of those new homes.
It played like a fury in Mexico with $7.7M at 865 locations for
the biggest launch weekend ever of a DWA title. The UK
bowed to $6.8M at No. 1 and ahead of both prior installments.
Italy is also tracking well ahead of those two movies while
Brazil’s hold was a terrific -27% at No. 1 for $10.3M after three
frames. Oz leads all play at $15.5M.

Last week’s offshore leader, M Night Shyamalan’s Glass —
which Disney is releasing abroad — dipped 49% in the 3rd
session. It added $12.2M in 54 markets for an overseas cume
of $110.3M, still running marginally below the previous
Eastrail 177 trilogy entry, Split. The worldwide total will pass
$200M once today’s actuals are finalized, or with tomorrow’s
numbers.
Behind Glass, five-time Oscar nominee Green Book, which is
going out internationally via a mix of Lionsgate and Amblin
Partners, had a combined $11.9Mweekend for a $25.5M cume
to date.
China has helped push Fox’s Deadpool 2 ahead of the
original Deadpool’s worldwide gross.
With $784Mglobal, DP2 is now the highest-grossing film in
the X-Men franchise.
It’s also worth highlighting the China performance of
Sony’s Escape Roomwhere the reported $9M budget pic has
now grossed $33.5M after three weekends. The week-to-week
drop was just 17%. While there hasn’t been much new blood
ahead of the February 5 holiday, the performance is notable in
that few mystery-thrillers like this see the inside of movie
theaters in China. That has raised curiosity along with a
cultural resonance given the popularity of escape rooms in the
big cities.
In milestones, Warner Bros’ Aquaman has topped $1.1B global
($783.4M international) and opens in Japan on Friday. Also
from WB, Creed II topped $200M global this round while
Disney’s Ralph Breaks The Internet has now surpassed the
original Wreck-It Ralph both domestically and internationally

as it closes in on $500M global.
