‘The Batman,’ still No. 1, crosses $300 million
Associated Press“The Batman” is still going strong three weeks into its theatrical run, with a tight grip on the top spot at the box office. “The Batman,” directed by Matt Reeves, also picked up $49.1 million internationally this weekend, bringing its global total to $598.1 million. The only place “The Batman” seems to be stumbling is in China where it earned $12.1 million in its first weekend. But about 43% of cinemas in China are closed due to the pandemic and “The Batman” still did slightly better than “Unchartered” which also opened there this weekend to $10.3 million. “It shows how passionate fans of anime are and how beautiful these films are when presented on the big screen.” The horror film “X” also debuted this weekend on 2,865 screens and is projected to gross around $4.4 million.
