Nosferatu might align with the Halloween energy, but it is rocking the cinemas post-Christmas by scoring an all-time record number for an R-rated film in the United States. It has experienced a minor drop from Thursday, which was Boxing Day. It hit the screens clashing with Timothee Chalamet’s Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown, and is leading at the domestic box office chart. Scroll below for the deets.
The film was in the news for a long time and mainly so because of its excellent cast led by the handsome and talented Bill Skarsgard in the titular role. The movie also features Nicholas Hoult, Lily-Rose Depp, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Emma Corrin, Ralph Ineson, Simon McBurney, and Willem Dafoe in crucial roles. It had its world premiere in Berlin, Germany, on December 2. The film has received positive reviews from the critics and a B- on CinemaScore.
Based on Luiz Fernando’s report, Lily-Rose Depp and Bill Skarsgard’s gothic horror flick registered the second highest-grossing post-Christmas Friday of all time for an R-rated movie at the US box office. It is only below Django Unchained’s $9.6 million gross. Nosferatu collected a solid $7.3 million on Friday across just 2,911 theatres.
