‘Furiosa’ Trucking To $80M-$85M Worldwide Start


https://deadline.com/2024/05/furiosa-garfield-the-movie-box-office-1235926082/

Furiosa is both a reboot of the Mad Max franchise and a prequel as Anya Taylor-Joy steps into the one armed action of Charlize Theron, who fans of the George Miller franchise are still rabid about when its comes to the desert vigilante’s big screen portrayal. After a big Cannes world premiere which won over critics at 85% certified fresh –a feat that last year’s big event pic at the fest, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny couldn’t pull off — Furiosa is eyeing an $80M-$85M global start. Broken out, that’s $40M-$45M abroad and another $40M+ four-day domestic.

Internationally, Furiosa will hit 75 markets throughout this opening weekend. Tomorrow includes majors France and Korea, followed by Germany, Italy, Australia and all of Latin America on Thursday; and the UK and Spain on Friday. Beyond that, Japan goes May 31 and China (with no cuts!) releases on June 7.

And you can add another $16 or whatever to that as I’ll definitely be seeing it in the theater.

Count me in! There's no way I'm not seeing this in the theater.

Hmmm...so domestically it's tracking a bit below Fury Road which was considered to be somewhat disappointing way back when.

I don't think its a reboot in any way.

They've just shifted the focus to another character.
