Barbie to top $1 billion at the global box office Sunday
The blockbuster from Warner Bros. Discovery and Mattel will top $1 billion in global ticket sales, before the end of the weekend, according to estimates from the studio. Final numbers will be released Monday. Only around 50 other films have reached this benchmark. Gerwig joins Anna Boden, co-director of Disney’s “Captain Marvel,” as the only two women to helm a billion-dollar film. “Captain Marvel” reached just shy of $1.13 billion during its theatrical run in 2019, according to data from Comscore. This also marks the first billion-dollar film for the newly minted Warner Bros. Discovery, which merged in 2022, and only the second movie released in 2023 to do so. Universal’s “The Super Mario Bros. Movie” has topped $1.3 billion since its April debut. Source: CNBC
