A Quiet Place Part II and Cruella Reignite the Box Office

We’re back! After a year of dismal news, the anticipated horror film A Quiet Place Part II finally got the box office back on track with a $48M domestic opening over the three-day holiday weekend. The film is expected to earn another $9-10 million on Monday, bringing its four-day total to $57 million. Per Deadline, these numbers weren’t too far off from the $60M opening the film was expected to achieve in its original pre-pandemic release back in March of last year.

Internationally, the film amassed $22M in just 12 markets, meaning John Krasinski’s follow-up has totaled a massive $70.4 million globally in its first weekend — a number that could jump to $80.5 million if we include totals from Memorial Day.

Likewise, while not a gargantuan hit, Disney’s Cruella pulled in $21.1 million over the three-day weekend, and $26.5 million over the four-day break from 3,892 theaters. Obviously, it’s tough to gauge Cruella’s success considering its simultaneous release on Disney+ Premier where subscribers can purchase it for $29.99. By all accounts, the solo film about 101 Dalmatians villain Cruella De Vil, would have made a lot more money from theaters had the studio opted for a traditional theatrical release, but don’t cry too much for the Mouse House as the film is likely doing big business on their streaming platform.

Globally, the Emma Stone flick collected $16.9 million from 29 markets, which puts its global opening at $37.4 million through Sunday. Audiences dropped an A grade on the film, which should allow the family flick to do solid business over the summer months.

Otherwise, the other big news story was the continuing success of F9: The Fast Saga abroad where the Vin Diesel action sequel remained No. 1 with a second weekend gross of $31M from eight markets — an 81% drop, sure, but still solid. All told, F9 has grossed $229 million, becoming just the second Hollywood film to cross the $200 million mark this year (the other being Godzilla vs. Kong).

New Line/WB’s The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It opened in two markets ahead of its domestic release and collected $3.9M, while Demon Slayer – Kimetsu No Yaiba is expected to cross the $500M worldwide threshold sometime this week.
