With $58.4 million globally in its first weekend, Halloween Ends from Universal is on track to top the global box office. In its domestic opening weekend, the movie brought in an estimated $41.2 million, and an additional $17 million from 77 foreign markets. It is the first movie to launch with more than $40 million since Nope did so in July, and it made more money than its rumoured $20 to $30 million production budget. It claims a worldwide total of $58.4 million, including overseas screenings.
In addition to its day-and-date Peacock streaming service launch, director David Gordon Green‘s trilogy-ending film debuted in almost 3,900 theatres across the United States and Canada. A domestic debut for the movie was estimated to be about $60 million by the most optimistic box office forecasts. With $2.6 million, Mexico was the film’s largest foreign market. That is more than twice what its predecessor
Halloween Kills grossed in 2021, and it ranks behind The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It and The Black Phone as the third-biggest horror opening of the epidemic era. Following a record-breaking Thursday haul, Germany brought in $1.6 million in the opening round. The United Kingdom and Ireland contributed $2.4 million. According to rumours, Green’s reboot trilogy, which started in 2018 with the well-liked Halloween, will conclude with Halloween Ends. It finished its run with roughly $160 million domestically and another $96 million from foreign markets, for a total domestic and international take of $76.2 million.
Halloween Ends welcomes Jamie Lee Curtis back for one last time as Laurie and once more explores the PTSD and trauma themes that the reboot trilogy has been so fascinated by. The film is billed as the eagerly anticipated showdown between horror icons Laurie Strode and Michael Myers. Since the 1978 debut of the groundbreaking original movie by director John Carpenter, Curtis has played the part for four decades. Will Patton plays Officer Frank Hawkins in Halloween Ends, while Kyle Richards plays Lindsey Wallace, Rohan Campbell plays Corey Cunningham, and James Jude Courtney plays Michael.
