Dune: Sci-Fi Epos breaks according to US

Million (abbreviation million, mill.) Is a number word and denotes the number 1,000,000 = 106.

The science fiction movie Dune is on worldwide record hunt. Towards the end of last week, the new work of the director Denis Villeneuve celebrated its premiere in the US. This logically ensured that worldwide revenues from the cinemas significantly increased, at the meanwhile $ 220.7 million.

This record has broken Dune

In the US, Dune was able to rinse a little more than $ 40 million in the coffers at the start weekend. This is a considerable number under pandemic conditions anyway. It is also the most successful start of a film from Warner Bros. Pictures in 2021 at the same time.

For comparison: The Live Action Animation Mix Space Jam: A New Legacy brought it to $ 31 million in its launch weekend, Mortal Kombat played a little more than $ 23 million. Even the monster movie Godzilla vs. Kong could take only $ 31.6 million in the same period of time.

In addition, Dune succeeded the most successful start of a film from the director Denis Villeneuve. All his other works remained well below the $ 40 million mark, although they all came across the Corona Pandemic into the cinemas.

Blade Runner 2049 made it $ 32.7 million in 2017, Arrival a year before to $ 24 million. This makes the signs very well for the second part of Dune.

Does Dune get a continuation?

Even the agent movie James Bond: no time to die will continue with the cinema visitors. He now comes to a worldwide billboard in the amount of approximately $ 525 million. The superhero film Venom 2: Let There Be Carnage is currently $ 352 million. Thus, these films are one of the most successful movies 2021. In view of the continued to increase Corona pandemic and the associated restrictions, this is quite good numbers.
