Can it surpass Halloween’s global haul?
Halloween is a 2018 slasher film and a sequel to the 1978 movie with the same name. Jamie Lee Curtis reprised her role, and it became a box-office success, followed by two more sequels. The slasher movie has grossed $259.9 million worldwide during its run. Scream 7 is around $55 million away from surpassing the global haul of Halloween.
According to industry experts, the Neve Campbell starrer is expected to earn between $210 million and $220 million at the worldwide box office in its theatrical run. Therefore, surpassing Halloween is impossible for the latest Scream installment. It would have earned dominance in the modern slasher era. Scream 7 was released on February 27.
