“Predator: Badlands” Soars to $80 Million Global Box Office Debut
UPDATE: The highly anticipated film Predator: Badlands has officially dominated the box office with a staggering $80 million worldwide debut as of July 15, 2023. The latest entry in the iconic franchise achieved a remarkable $40 million in North America alone, marking a new record for the series.
This launch surpasses the previous best opening of $38.3 million set by 2004’s Alien vs. Predator, highlighting the franchise’s enduring appeal. Written and directed by Dan Trachtenberg, Predator: Badlands has not only captured audiences but also garnered positive critical reception, achieving an impressive A- CinemaScore.
Despite a challenging box office landscape, Predator: Badlands has proven to be a box office powerhouse, showcasing resilience in a market where many new releases struggled. Competing films such as Die My Love and Christy failed to make a significant impact, while Sarah’s Oil emerged as the best-performing newcomer, but unable to match the explosive success of Predator: Badlands.
As the weekend progresses, industry analysts and moviegoers alike will be watching closely to see if Predator: Badlands can maintain its momentum and continue to break records. The film’s ability to resonate with audiences and critics alike suggests a promising future ahead for the franchise.
