Before the Jacob Elordi and Margot Robbie steamy lovefest, Wuthering Heights, takes over the world, this weekend belonged to K-Pop group Stray Kids as their Live Nation concert movie, Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience, danced to a $19.1M global win from 61 territories, electrified largely by Universal International. The pic also had bragging rights for the No. 1 pic at the weekend foreign B.O. with $13.5M, while domestic delivered $5.6M from Bleecker Street‘s new event cinema label Crosswalk at 1,724 locations.
CJ has Korea but the movie didn’t fare that well over there with an estimated $227K (we’re still figuring out why that is). Japan didn’t go this weekend. For Uni, it’s their first K-Pop movie. In several territories, the movie is besting such comps as Taylor Swift / The Official Release Party of a Showgirl, Break The Silence: The Movie, Bring the Soul: The Movie, BTS World Tour Love Yourself in Seoul and Moonage Daydream.

The writer of this article: why would fans in the country that can just go to a real concert not bother with a movie of the same concert? 🤔
Anyways, very proud of my kids, the movie really was a lot of fun!
