“Godzilla vs. Kong” remained atop the domestic box office in its third weekend of release. The Legendary and Warner Bros. movie added another $7.7 million from 3,001 theaters, boosting its North American tally to $80.5 million.
The film looks to be the first to cross $100 million in the U.S and Canada since the pandemic began. Its ticket sales are especially notable, and not just because movie theaters across the country have been operating at reduced capacity. “Godzilla vs. Kong” has been available on HBO Max to subscribers, meaning people who pay for the streaming service can watch it at home for no extra charge. Warner Bros.’ entire 2021 slate will follow a similar release pattern.
At the international box office, the CGI spectacle of “Godzilla vs. Kong” has surpassed $300 million in ticket sales, bringing its global haul to a mighty $390 million. The tentpole film cost roughly $165 million to produce and is primed to turn a profit.
