Summary
$93.9 million gave Steven Spielberg’s “Disclosure Day” a far stronger global debut than the low-$65 million initially expected, with $44 million from North America and $49.9 million overseas.
Overseas momentum drove the upside, as the film ranked No. 1 in nearly every listed market and posted strong shares in Spain, Brazil, Italy and Hong Kong despite competition such as World Cup screenings in Mexico.
The UK and Ireland are tracking to $7.3 million, France to $3.7 million and Mexico to $3.5 million, with several markets running ahead of comps including “Ready Player One,” “Arrival” and “Twisters.”
Premium formats added support to the launch, with Imax contributing notable shares across markets, while North American audiences gave the Emily Blunt-led ensemble a B CinemaScore.
Universal’s $115 million sci-fi release now looks to sustain that better-than-expected start through a long theatrical run, a key test for profitability.
