World box office top 5 weekend breakdown 15th - 18th April 2022
The third in the Fantastic Bests series climbs up the global box office from its debut position last weekend at number 2 to the top this week with a country count that has expanded to 67, including North America.
The movie takes $114 Million on its second weekend which gives the film a total global gross of $193.4 Million, a 49% increase, a worrying 2 week gross for the troubled Wizarding World series.
The movie is the 9th top film of 2022 so far, but with the mixed critical reviews and tepid word of mouth this could be the first 'flop' for the series.
A sequel to the 2019 movie K.G.F: Chapter 1 which took $6 Million globally gets released in 19 countries this week and lands on the global box office at number 2 making it the highest new movie.
Taking an incredible $72.3 Million on its debut this is the second Indian movie to gain global success in recent weeks.
Falling from the top to number 3 this weekend is the video game sequel movie which takes $55 Million from 55 countries, a 49% drop over last weekend.
This gives the movie a total global gross of $231.8 Million after 3 weeks of release and its the 7th top movie of 2022.
The action comedy starring Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum climbs back up to number 4 from last weeks 6 this weekend with a gross of $16.6 Million from 34 countries, a 32% increase over last weekend.
