Send Help Topples Iron Lung at Global Box Office
1 Feb
Summary
- Send Help debuted with $28.1M globally, outperforming Iron Lung.
- Avatar 3 has reached $1.41 billion globally, ranking 18th all-time.
- Zootopia 2 shows unusual strength, remaining No. 1 in China.

In a notable box office showdown, Disney 20th Century Studios' 'Send Help' has taken the lead, debuting with a global take of $28.1 million. This figure includes $20 million from domestic screens and an $8.1 million opening from 47 international markets. The film's success is a significant win for an R-rated original movie, especially considering its pre-marketing costs.
'Send Help' outperformed expectations, surpassing the estimated $20.9 million global debut of the indie production 'Iron Lung,' which premiered in 11 markets. This impressive start for 'Iron Lung,' a film with a production budget under $3 million, highlights the strong demand and sell-out shows reported in some international territories.
Disney continues its box office dominance, holding the top three global spots. 'Avatar 3' has now grossed $1.41 billion worldwide, positioning it as the 18th highest-grossing film ever. The James Cameron-directed film has also achieved a significant milestone at the foreign box office, ranking as the No. 12 MPA release with over $1 billion.
