In its second week at the North American box office, the Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw spinoff still maintains its attraction. The proof is that the film dominates the North American box office and has impressive sales in the international market.
The top-notch combination of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and “shipper” Jason Statham continues to bring Universal impressive numbers on the August box office race. Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw has just brought in more. 25.4 million USD from the domestic market, bringing the domestic revenue of the work to 108.5 million USD after 10 days of presenting to the home audience. Although the second week’s revenue fell 51% compared to the opening achievement, the separate film about the “rogue” couple Hobbs – Shaw was still able to become a name to dominate the North American box office, marking the second consecutive week to hold the No. in this huge market.
The plan to attack the Korean and Chinese markets will bring the revenue of Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw to a lot of growth.

With no major rivals, the action blockbuster from director David Leitch continues to be the most popular name at the international box office in the past week. The performance of the actor duo Dwayne Johnson – Jason Statham has just added $ 60.8 million from abroad, bringing the global cume to $ 332 million. A week after “shipping” and launching in many countries and territories, the Fast & Furious franchise continues to land in many new markets. The film just had a $6.9 million debut in France, debuted with $2.6 million in Italy and brought in an additional $1.6 million from the Belgian box office.
Up to now, Hobbs & Shaw has not been released in two of the “biggest” markets, Korea and China. Universal’s action blockbuster is expected to premiere in kimchi on August 14 before landing on the Chinese big screen on August 23, contributing to a significant increase in film sales.
Behind Fast & Furious: Hobbs & Shaw is Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (Vietnamese title: Horror story at midnight ). In the first week of release, the work labeled 13+ owns the opening achievement that matches Lionsgate’s expectations thanks to the revenue of 20.8 million USD. However, Midnight Horror is a work that does not satisfy fans of the horror genre. The proof is that the film is only rated C by the audience on CinemaScore

The appearance of Horror Story at midnight caused The Lion King (Vietnamese title: The Lion King ) to be pushed down to third place. Disney’s latest live-action work brought the studio about $ 20 million. The film currently owns a domestic cume of $473 million after four weeks of release in the North American market. Last week, The Lion King
came to Japanese audiences and grossed a $9.3 million opening. The film has now grossed $861.5 million at the foreign box office, pushing its global total to $1.34 billion. The Lion King also just beat Beauty and the Beast ‘s record of $ 1.263 billion (Vietnamese title: Beauty and the Beast).) to become the highest-grossing live-action blockbuster

In fourth place is rookie Dora and the Lost City of Gold (Vietnamese title: Dora and the lost city of gold ). The adventure film released by Paramount is estimated to gross about $17 million in its opening weekend. The film received a lot of positive feedback from the home audience and was rated A on CinemaScore. Dora and the Lost City of Gold was also released in 11 markets outside of North America over the weekend and grossed around $2.5 million. The work, led by James Bobin, will be released in the remaining markets in turn and close the journey at the Brazilian box office in November.

The other name in the Top 5 is Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (Vietnamese title: Once Upon a Time in Hollywood ) starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Brad Pitt. In its third week of release in North America, the film dropped 42% in revenue and brought in only 11.6 million USD. The film’s domestic gross is currently just $100 million. The work has just been released to the Russian audience and helped the studio pocket an additional $ 7.7 million. Producers are hoping that a release in France, the UK, Australia, Brazil, Germany and Spain next week will improve Once Upon a Time in Hollywood ‘s box office performance somewhat.
