‘Lilo & Stitch’ hits $611m total
Disney’s Lilo & Stitch is now the second-highest-grossing US studio film of 2025 at the worldwide box office – behind A Minecraft Movie – with a powerful $610.8m after two weekends of play.
The live-action remake of the 2002 animation added an estimated $176.1m at the weekend: $63.0m in North America (dropping 57%) and $113.1m across 51 international markets (sliding just 28%). Totals are now $280.1m in North America and $330.7m for international.
For comparison, A Minecraft Movie stood at $552.6m globally after two weekends of play, so Lilo & Stitch is 10.5% ahead of 2025’s other big Hollywood studio family film at the same stage of release.
Lilo & Stitch experienced a number of strong territory holds at the weekend, dropping 0% in France, 12% in Germany, 23% in China, 28% in UK/Ireland and 29% in Australia. The film went up in a suite of mid-size and smaller markets, including Netherlands (+21%), Belgium (+13%), Saudi Arabia (+8%) and Poland (+7%).
Lilo & Stitch is already the highest-grossing film of 2025 in Brazil, Mexico and many other Latin American countries, and is the top non-local film this year in Italy.
In cumulative totals, Mexico leads the international pack with $45.9m to date, ahead of UK/Ireland ($34.5m). Thanks to its strong hold, France ($23.1m) has now moved ahead of Brazil ($21.6m), with Germany ($18.1m) in fifth place. Next come China ($18.0m), Italy ($16.6m), Spain ($13.5m), Australia ($11.2m) and Argentina ($10.7m).
The original animated version of Lilo & Stitch grossed $274.0m worldwide in 2002, according to available data.
Lilo & Stitch puts Disney’s live-action remake strategy back on track, after experiencing a box office wobble with Disney’s Snow White earlier this year, grossing $205.4m worldwide.
In 2023, The Little Mermaid delivered $569.6m worldwide.
‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’ cruises to $354m
Paramount and Skydance’s Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning saw very similar declines to Lilo & Stitch in its second weekend of release, matching the Disney film with a 57% drop in North America, and falling a gentle 33% in international holdover markets.
After two weekends of play, this eighth Mission: Impossible film has reached $122.6m in North America, $231.2m across international markets, combining for a $353.8m worldwide total.
A new opening in China provided a $25.2m boost – topping the territory’s box office.
In international holdover markets, UK/Ireland has moved up to first place thanks to a $22.3m total – leapfrogging both Japan ($18.5m) and South Korea ($17.0m).
Other top markets are France ($14.2m to date), India ($11.3m), Germany ($10.9m), Australia ($10.5m), Taiwan ($9.4m) and Mexico ($7.1m).
Including China, six of the top 10 international markets to date for The Final Reckoning are from the Asia-Pacific region.
The Final Reckoning’s $353.8m global total compares with $370.9m for 2023’s Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One after two weekends of play. Differences in previews strategy and country sequencing make comparisons inexact, but the two films appear to be performing similarly so far.
Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One reached $571.1m worldwide – representing a dip from the three previous films in the franchise, which is led by 2018’s Mission: Impossible – Fallout ($791.1m not including rereleases).
‘The Phoenician Scheme’ reaches key markets, hits $7m
UPDATED: Following a week of early release in a single territory (UK/Ireland), Focus Features/Universal’s The Phoenician Scheme rolled into another 40 international markets at the weekend, as well as beginning its North American run in very limited play.
Wes Anderson’s corporate espionage adventure opened with an estimated $570,000 from six sites in North America, and added a confirmed $4.2m for international. Worldwide total including the initial week in UK/Ireland is $6.8m.
While France ($620,000), Germany ($449,000), and Italy ($444,000) led the opening international markets, fourth-placed Netherlands ($315,000) punched strongly, with the biggest opening ever for a Wes Anderson film in the territory.
In UK/Ireland, where The Phoenician Scheme faced competition for older and upscale audiences from the newly arrived The Salt Path (distributed by Black Bear), the drop from the opening session was 44%. Total after 10 days there is $2.6m.
‘Karate Kid: Legends’ expands – now at $47m
Sony’s Karate Kid: Legends expanded from its initial 12 markets (all in Latin America) to 43 international territories, also landing in North America. Weekend takings were an estimated $12.0m for international plus $21.0m in North America. Global total including the early Latin America play is $47.0m.
Among international markets, UK/Ireland led with an estimated $3.4m, ahead of Germany ($2.2m) and Middle East ($1.4m).
Sony estimates 40% of the international footprint is yet to release. Karate Kid: Legends lands in both Australia and Italy on Thursday (June 5), with Spain, France and Japan all to follow in August.
Karate Kid: Legends is the sixth film in this franchise. It’s chasing the powerful $359.1m achieved by 2010 remake The Karate Kid (starring Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan) in 2010.
Australian horror ‘Bring Her Back’ launches on $8m
Also for Sony, Australian horror Bring Her Back – from Talk To Me directors Danny and Michael Philippou – began its international rollout in eight early markets, coinciding with A24’s North American release.
Bring Her Back grossed an estimated $1.0m in Sony’s international markets, plus $7.1m for A24 in North America. Australia leads the international pack with Au$827,000 ($537,000).
Sony handles all international markets on the film except China and Japan. South Korea welcomes Bring Her Back this coming week, with France and Italy to follow in July, and UK/Ireland, Germany, Brazil and Mexico in August.
Talk To Me grossed $92.0m worldwide in 2022, according to available data.
