Godzilla Minus Zero has officially surpassed the North American box office total of Avengers: Endgame Encore. Although it was a re-release, the film has a larger audience than the Japanese live-action. Therefore, surpassing this MCU re-release in less than 10 days is an impressive feat, which is expected to give the Japanese film even greater exposure in North America. Keep scrolling for the numbers.
The R-rated sequel is edging closer to beating its predecessor at the North American box office as well. However, it is also expected to take a steep decline in its second weekend in the market. It is also performing strongly in its home market, Japan. The film has seen almost 2.3 million admissions at the box office in Japan in 12 days.
