Wuthering Heights Box Office Summary
- North America – $72.3 million
- International – $119.7 million
- Worldwide – $192 million
After delivering the highest opening weekend numbers ($32.8 million) for a romantic movie in the post-COVID era, the film saw a 57.3% drop in its second weekend, bringing in 414 million.
The latest frame tells a steadier story. Earnings dipped 50.3%, adding $6.9 million even after losing 461 theaters from its total count. Per screen average reached $2,158, a solid figure considering the loss of premium large formats.
Scream 7’s Record-Breaking Opening Impacts Premium Screen Count
The arrival of Scream 7 changed the box office landscape fast. The horror sequel stormed North America with a record-breaking $64.1 million opening weekend. Premium large screen formats, including IMAX and Dolby Cinema, shifted to the slasher, limiting high-priced ticket sales for Wuthering Heights. Even with fewer screens and reduced format access, the romantic drama continues to draw audiences who prefer character-driven storytelling over jump scares.
International Box Office Strength Amidst Global Competition
Internationally, the film also contends with GOAT and billion-dollar holdovers like Zootopia 2 and Avatar: Fire and Ash. Even so, it posted a strong $15.6 million overseas this weekend, marking only a 40.7% drop from the last frame.
Wuthering Heights Box Office Projections
Current projections place the film’s final domestic total between $100 million and $110 million, with a worldwide finish ranging from $250 million to $280 million. Such numbers would mark a significant comeback for Margot Robbie, whose post-Barbie follow-up last year failed to meet expectations.
All signs point to Wuthering Heights crossing $200 million in the coming days, sealing its place as one of the year’s early success stories.
