Aquamanis officially a billion dollar movie now.
Just over a month after its initial release,Animation Movies | Adult Movies Online in China on Dec. 7, the latest entry in the DC Extended Universe has become the 37th movie in history to make more than $1 billion at the global box office. It's also the only DC Extended Universe release to reach that milestone.
SEE ALSO: 'Aquaman' is a weird, wild party that overstays its welcomeThat's especially impressive when you realize that Aquaman, with just $287.9 million earned so far in the U.S. (where it opened on Dec. 21), is so far the worst-performing DCEU movie domestically after Justice League. Most of Aquaman's success -- $732.4 million, to be exact -- came from audiences outside the United States.
(To be fair, Aquaman's only been out in the U.S. for just over three weeks. It made an estimated $17.3 million domestically this weekend, its fourth, and it's likely to beat Man of Steel's $291 million take before next weekend.)
Aquamanmay be on top for the DCEU but it's not the first DC Comics movie to hit $1 billion. Director Christopher Nolan's gritty Batman takes in The Dark Knightand The Dark Knight Risesboth eclipsed, barely, $1 billion in global ticket sales. Aquamancurrently falls between the two, with $1.02 billion in total.
This marks director James Wan's second billion-dollar hit. Prior to Aquaman, Wan was perhaps best known for his contributions to the horror genre; together with creative partner Leigh Whannell, he created both the Saw series and the Insidious series.
Both series have had big successes, but it was ultimately Wan's gig directing Furious 7that marked his entry into the billion dollar filmmakers club. The seventh entry in theFast and the Furiousseries, historically a popular one overseas, amassed $1.5 billion at the global box office.
Aquamanis only (only??) the fifth movie released in 2018 to cross $1 billion. Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, and Incredibles 2all got there first.
