“Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” Reigns Supreme at Box Office with Monstrous $80M Opening

Star-Studded Monster Mash Dethrones "Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire," Signals Robust Year for Theaters.

In a resounding display of box office dominance, Warner Bros. and Legendary Pictures’ highly anticipated “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” has roared into theaters, securing an impressive $80 million opening weekend in North America. This monumental debut not only exceeded expectations but also cemented the film’s status as the second-highest opening of the year, trailing only the juggernaut “Dune: Part Two.”

Starring Rebecca Hall and Brian Tyree Henry, the star-studded monster mash-up captivated audiences with its larger-than-life battles between the iconic titans, Godzilla and Kong. Initial projections had positioned the film for a more modest $50 million opening, but the allure of witnessing these cinematic behemoths clash on the big screen proved too irresistible for moviegoers.

“Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” dethroned last week’s box office champion, “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire,” which slipped to second place with $15.7 million, bringing its two-week domestic total to $73.4 million. The sci-fi epic “Dune: Part Two” maintained its strong performance, securing third place with $11.1 million and pushing its domestic haul to an impressive $252.4 million after five weeks in theaters.

The success of “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” builds upon the popularity of the MonsterVerse franchise, which previously saw the two titans clash in 2021’s “Godzilla vs. Kong.” While that film opened modestly at $48.5 million due to the challenges of the pandemic, the latest installment has far surpassed its predecessor, marking the second-biggest opening in the franchise behind 2014’s “Godzilla” ($93.2 million).

This triumphant debut signals a robust year for the theater industry, as audiences continue to flock to cinemas for big-budget spectacles and beloved franchises. The impressive performance of “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” underscores the enduring allure of these iconic monsters and the power of blockbuster filmmaking to captivate audiences worldwide.

Godzilla vs. Kong: The New Empire

Rounding out the top five at the weekend box office were the animated comedy “Kung Fu Panda 4” ($10.2 million) and the psychological horror film “Immaculate” ($3.3 million), showcasing the diverse range of offerings appealing to moviegoers.

As the summer movie season approaches, all eyes will be on “Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire” to see if it can maintain its momentum and further solidify its place as a box office titan, while other highly anticipated releases vie for their share of the spotlight.
