World Box Office: Aquaman drowns the competition

Aquaman washed away the competition at this weekend’s global box office race, taking in $126.4 million from 43 markets and clinching a second top finish on the combined domestic and international chart. Warner Bros.’ latest entry in its DC Universe comic adaptations built on a near $100 million China debut in the last frame, adding 42 new territories and taking the first spot in all but one of these.

World Box Office: Aquaman takes the weekend, with help from China

Aquaman netted a fantastic catch in the heavily polluted Yellow Sea and made $93.6 million in its first global market, China. That was enough to make it the number one film worldwide. Jason Momoa stars as the title character, an Atlantis prince who has to save the Ocean from nuclear submarine riding pirates and earn his people’s respect after being cast out for being half human. Major markets due to open next week include the UK, Mexico, and Russia, while the US won’t see this film in theaters until December 21.
