GLOBAL REPORT: Tenet Crosses $40M Domestic, $280M Global Marks; Break the Silence Hits $1M in North American Debut

Sunday, September 27 Report: Warner Bros. checks in this morning with a report that Tenet is posting another strong weekend hold on the domestic and international fronts, adding $19.2 million globally this weekend. The worldwide haul now stands at $283.2 million.

After crossing $250 million last week, the film is pacing to top the $300 million threshold by next weekend.

Domestically, Tenet eased 26 percent to $3.4 million this weekend (both figures cited by Warner’s email today). The film passed the $40 million mark in North America and is estimated to stand at $41.2 million by Sunday’s end. This was the movie’s top global market this weekend.

In the domestic marketplace, 25 percent of cinemas remain closed, while Warner also notes that 78 percent of California (25 counties, including Los Angeles) remains closed. Other major regions like metro New York also remain inoperable.

Tenet‘s top ten theaters were dominated by California venues, though, with eight from the state landing among the top performers. Five of the top ten were drive-ins, while two were IMAX screens (both in the Los Angeles / Orange County area) and the Alamo Drafthouse in Ashburn, Virginia also stood out.

Among overall DMA markets for Tenet, Orange County / Greater Los Angeles is ahead of the pack, followed by Dallas, San Francisco, Salt Lake City, Toronto, Phoenix, Chicago, Washington DC, Houston, and Atlanta.

32 percent of the domestic gross is represented by premium formats like IMAX, Dolby Cinema, and others.

Tenet‘s International Highlights

Christopher Nolan’s cerebral epic added $15.8 million this weekend from international play, bringing the overseas cume to $242 million.

Japan eased just 30 percent from its strong debut last weekend (even stronger considering it was a holiday last Sunday), when the film topped the opening’s Dunkirk and Interstellar, to add $3.0 million this weekend. The country’s local cume on the title is at an estimated $11.4 million. Tenet is tracking 46 percent of Dunkirk‘s lifetime gross at the moment.

France and Germany also delivered more staying power for Tenet, drawing a light 13 decline and 9 percent increase, respectively, for $1.4 million and $1.3 million frames. Nolan’s film stands at $18.0 million in France and $14.6 million in Germany. Holland (up 8 percent), Italy (down 17 percent), United Kingdom (down 21 percent), Korea (down 28 percent), and Australia (down 21 percent) round out the trend of strong holds this weekend.

China, the film’s top grossing market thus far, continues to see the title losing screens and market share as it dropped 71 percent to $1.6 million this weekend from 4,746 screens (down 38 percent from 7,670 last week). The Middle Kingdom has generated $64.3 million from Tenet to date.

Tenet still has 25 overseas markets yet to open.

Tenet in IMAX

As alluded to, IMAX remains a powerhouse for Tenet as the film added $2.2 million across the company network to reach $32 million in global box office from that film alone.

IMAX grosses for Nolan’s latest registered another $1.8 million from 625 screens, representing 11 percent of overseas box office this weekend, and bringing the international cume to $27 million.

Domestically, IMAX earnings on Tenet tallied $355K this weekend, down just 25 percent from last, bringing the North American cume to $5.1 million.

Weekend Forecast: Solstice Studios’ Unhinged and Nolan’s Inception 10th Anniversary Event Set to Welcome Moviegoers Back to Domestic Theaters

To quote Lennon and McCarthy, it’s been a long and winding road. As of this weekend, though, major theater chains across the United States will finally be back up and running with the domestic market’s first wide release since March. Following months of speculation and delayed reopening plans, Solstice Studios’ Unhinged is the film setting the stage for more to come in the weeks and months ahead. It’s a watershed moment oft-planned by the startup distributor throughout the summer as spikes of the COVID-19 pandemic across the country resulted in multiple studio and exhibitor delays, but one that will finally come to pass — and one with significant meaning for exhibitor support. Solstice is releasing the film in 44 states, representing 70 percent of physical theaters. The total theater count is estimated at 2,000, with the expectation of adding between 200 and 300 locations on August 28 when another wave of theaters from major theaters plan to resume operations. Overseas markets have se...
