Despite a 62 percent second weekend drop at the domestic box office, Lionsgate’s John Wick: Chapter 4 is performing splendidly as it enters its second week of release.
After 10 days in play, the film has grossed a terrific $245 million at the worldwide box office, of which $122 million comes from over 3,800 domestic theaters and $123 million from 75 overseas territories.
John Wick 4 set franchise records in its opening weekend, when it made $73.5 million domestically and $137 million worldwide.
The film has already overtaken the $86 million that the relatively modest first John Wick made in its lifetime run, as well as John Wick: Chapter 2’s $171 million worldwide haul.
Now, the action sequel will set its sights on passing John Wick: Chapter 3 — Parabellum’s $327 million global tally.
Having already eclipsed John Wick 3’s opening, it’s likely that the super-sized fourth film eventually overtakes the third movie’s franchise-best haul.
John Wick 4 is arguably the best-reviewed installment in the series, at least as far as the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes is concerned.
The film is currently sitting at a fresh rating of 94 percent.
