What was the production budget?

The film cost a reported $22 million to produce, after tax incentives. Bloody Disgusting attributes that figure to reporting around the opening and names James Wan and Jason Blum among the producers in the Bloody Disgusting breakdown. That budget placed it firmly in modest studio horror territory.

It gave Warner Bros. a lower risk threshold than a large franchise reboot. A smaller budget also meant a smaller theatrical target for profitability.

How did opening weekend perform?

It opened to about $13.5 million domestically from 3,304 theaters. That total included $1.5 million in previews.

It placed third for the weekend behind Super Mario Galaxy and Project Hail Mary. The opening global frame was about $34 million, with roughly $13-$13.5 million domestic and $20-$20.9 million international.

What were the final domestic and worldwide totals?

The final North American gross was about $29.2 million in the United States and Canada. International markets added about $61.4 million, according to Box Office Mojo figures cited by Wikipedia in the Box Office Mojo figures cited by Wikipedia.

Trackers varied slightly around $90.4-$91 million by date and market count. The central closing figure remains about $90.6 million worldwide.

  • Domestic opening: about $13.5 million
  • Final North America: about $29.2 million
  • Final international: about $61.4 million
  • Final worldwide: about $90.6 million

Did it make money?

Using the industry 2.5x rule, the film needed about $55 million worldwide to break even. Koimoi applies that calculation to the $22 million budget, putting the $90.6 million total roughly $36 million past break-even in the Koimoi analysis. Reported budgets exclude marketing and theater cuts.

Opening comparisons also understate profitability for films with longer runs and ancillary revenue. Variety estimated about $10 million in profit for Warner Bros. That outcome made a low-opening horror reboot financially viable theatrically before streaming.
