Black Phone 2 Surges Past Pitt, Eyes Cruise Box Office!
27 Nov
Summary
- Black Phone 2 has achieved a $130.5 million global box office total.
- The horror sequel is closing in on Tom Cruise's American Made earnings.
- It has already outgrossed Brad Pitt's sci-fi film Ad Astra.
The horror sequel Black Phone 2 continues to impress at the global box office, having amassed $130.5 million. This figure includes over $50 million internationally and $75 million domestically. The film has successfully surpassed the earnings of Brad Pitt's 2019 sci-fi movie, Ad Astra, which grossed $127.5 million worldwide. The sequel is now in close pursuit of Tom Cruise's acclaimed 2017 action-comedy, American Made.
Currently, Black Phone 2 trails American Made by approximately $4.4 million in global earnings. With its current momentum, especially if weekend ticket sales remain strong, it is anticipated to overtake American Made in the upcoming days. However, it is unlikely to reach the original film's total of $161.4 million.
Directed by Scott Derrickson, the sequel is set years after the first film. It follows Finn as he continues to process his trauma, while his younger sister Gwen begins experiencing nightmares related to the masked kidnapper, suggesting the horror may not be over.
