Wicked: For Good vs. The Conjuring: Last Rites – Box Office Comparison
Here’s how the two films performed at the global box office, according to Box Office Mojo data:
Based on these figures, the musical fantasy sequel currently trails the Vera Farmiga and Patrick Wilson-led horror blockbuster by approximately $26.5 million worldwide. For Wicked: For Good to overtake Last Rites globally, it may need to first capitalize on the window over the coming days before James Cameron’s Avatar: Fire and Ash arrives in theaters worldwide. While the milestone remains achievable, its chances will then depend on how well the film performs after the release of the upcoming epic sci-fi film, Avatar: Fire and Ash.
Wicked: For Good’s Global Haul Also Depends On China & Japan Release
As of now, Wicked: For Good has yet to open in China and Japan, two international markets that could significantly impact its final worldwide total. As a result, the film’s lifetime global box office will partly depend on its performance in these territories. The final verdict will become clear once it is released in these markets.
