Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is a whisker away from overtaking 1989’s Batman and becoming Tim Burton’s second-highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. The 1989 Tim Burton Film Batman grossed $251 million at the domestic box office and remains his second-biggest grosser to date. However, after a solid fourth-weekend performance, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is on the brink of taking the spot.
Despite witnessing a 37% drop from last weekend, the film placed second at the domestic box office in its fourth weekend of release. New entry The Wild Robot took the top spot with over $11 million Friday and $35 million 3-day weekend.
Meanwhile, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice raked in $16.3 million (via Deadline) in the fourth weekend for a running total of $250.3 million by Sunday. The film not only crossed a huge domestic box office milestone but is also on the brink of becoming Tim Burton’s second-highest-grossing film.
The horror comedy will soon overtake 1989’s Batman’s $251.4 Million haul to become Tim Burton’s second highest-grossing film at the domestic box office. 2010’s Alice in Wonderland is his highest-grossing film, with $334.1 million.
