Mufasa: The Lion King Worldwide Box Office: Axes Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire’s $570M+ Haul In Its 5th Weekend!

Mufasa: The Lion King continues its winning run at the box office as it surpasses Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire to move up in 2024’s highest-grossing films list worldwide. It is also rapidly approaching a vital milestone globally. However, it will be hard for it to surpass Wicked’s $709.65 million worldwide gross. Scroll below for the deets.

Directed by Adam Wingard, it is the fifth film in the MonsterVerse franchise. The critics on Rotten Tomatoes gave it a poor rating, and their collective consensus was, “Come to Godzilla x Kong for the sheer monster-mashing spectacle — and stay for that too because the movie doesn’t have much else to offer.” However, the audience rating varies by a massive margin, as they gave it a 90%.

According to trade analyst Luiz Fernando’s latest box office report, Mufasa: The Lion King has raked another set of winning numbers on its 5th weekend across the international markets. Based on the reports, the Disney feature collected a strong $20.3 million overseas, with a drop of just -27.2% from last weekend. At the US box office, the movie missed the top spot in the weekly chart by a slim margin.
