Alita: Battle Angel Is Overperforming, But How Much Does It Need To Break Even?
Alita: Battle Angel has overperformed compared to its box office expectations. Originally anticipated to only pull in a little over $20 million this weekend domestically, the movie is now expected to bring in a 3-day total of nearly $28 million and thats only in North America. But how much does the movie need to make to start pulling in a profit for Fox? We explore below.
In addition to the $27.8 million Alita: Battle Angel has landed this weekend, in the U.S. its actually a long weekend thanks to the Presidents Day holiday landing on Monday. Since the weather isnt great out in a lot of parts of the country and people are excited enough to be going to the movies, the expectation is that the 5-day total for Alita: Battle Angel will be at around $41.7 million.
Prior to Sundays numbers, the flick has made $36.5 million domestically, including its early Valentines day open ahead of the weekend, according to Box Office Mojo.
The good news doesnt end there. There was always the hope that Alita: Battle Angel would do well overseas and estimates for the international box office now have the flick pinpointed at $136 million in worldwide markets so far.
Deadline reports that Alita: Battle Angel will need to make $500 million or more in order to start being profitable for Fox. That number is factoring in the movies alleged $200 million budget (shaved down to $170 million with tax credits). Its also factoring in advertising and the fact that studios share movie ticket profits with theatersand elsewhere in the world the studios rake in a much smaller percentage of the box office intake.
Figuring out revenue versus profit is complicated math even when you have the numbers right in front of you, and we dont. So its hard to tell if guesstimates will pan out. Still, Alita: Battle Angel should prove to be an interesting case at the box office. From these early numbers, its certainly not going to be the giant flop the naysayers predicted.
Whether or not it becomes a middling movie or a big win remains to be seen. In all likelihood, if this one does well it will have some tidy domestic numbers and some huge worldwide numbers to thank. Well be sure to keep you posted the rest of the way. At the end of the day, though, this weekend was expected to be a tight race between Isn't It Romantic, Happy Death Day 2U and Alita: Battle Angel. It doesn't look as if that is the case, as this weekend was full of surprises.
