What The Numbers Indicate

Although The Mummy has already overtaken Primate’s worldwide total by a margin of nearly $30 million, thanks to its significantly higher overseas earnings, the race at the domestic box office is very close. At the time of writing, The Mummy is around $1.2 million short of surpassing Primate’s domestic total. At its current pace, the Lee Cronin-directed feature is expected to surpass this figure in the coming days. However, the final box office verdict should become clearer in the weeks ahead.

Budget, Break-Even & Box Office Profit (Estimated)

Since the film was made on an estimated $22 million, according to Deadline, it needed to earn $55 million to break even at the box office, using the 2.5x multiplier rule. With a current worldwide total of $69 million, the film has generated an estimated theatrical surplus of approximately $14 million so far. This figure is expected to increase as it continues its theatrical run.
