The production cost of “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” is 150 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office is currently close to 260 million U.S. dollars.

According to current trends, the film will become the first North American film to exceed $200 million at the box office since the epidemic.

Also due to the success of “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings”, “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” and other autumn films have chosen to maintain the October-November release date.

The Warner horror film “Malignant” scored $5.57 million in the opening draw, ranking third in the box office this weekend.

“Malignant” lost to the 20th-century film industry action comedy “Free Guy” on the weekend of the fifth week of release ($5.82 million).

According to foreign media, “Malignant” has a budget of US$40 million, which shows that the reality is unsatisfactory.

Warner adopted a mixture of theater and streaming media throughout the year, but the theater box office of “In the Heights” and “The Suicide Squad” were far below expectations.

However, Warner has renegotiated the supplementary agreement with the star director, and the bow has not looked back.

The following autumn and winter files of “Dune”, “King Richard” and “The Matrix Resurrections” could not be released exclusively in theaters.

The awards season movie began to be released on the North American film market, and “The Card Counter” released by Focus Pictures received a box office score of 1.1 million US dollars (580 theaters).

“The Card Counter” directed by Paul Schrader and starring Oscar Isaac has 86% freshness of rotten tomatoes, but the popcorn index is only 41% high.

Universal Pictures’ R-rated horror film “Candyman” received another 4.83 million US dollars at the end of the third week, with a total of 48.03 million US dollars in North America and 59 million US dollars worldwide. The production cost of the film was 25 million US dollars.
