“Free Guy” held on strongly to grab a second weekend at the top of the mainland China box office. It beat an unusual theatrical release for “The Tomorrow War,” which has gone straight to streaming in other territories.
“Free Guy” earned $18.3 million between Friday and Sunday, according to data from consultancy, Artisan Gateway. That was only a 23% drop from its opening weekend performance, when it grossed $23.8 million.
Over ten days, it has accumulated $56.6 million. That already makes “Free Guy” the fourth biggest U.S. film of the year in China behind “F9,” “Godzilla Vs. Kong” and the rereleased “Avatar” which it will soon overtake.
Chinese authorities appear to have ended the annual summer blackout period when only Chinese-language titles are allowed fresh releases. “Free Guy” was given little advanced notice that its release could go ahead, but it caught on quickly.
