‘Lilo & Stitch' Positively Bubbly With $611M Global, ‘Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning' Easily Runs To $354M WW
Updated: With a pair of phenomenal holds, Lilo & Stitch and Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning continued to dominate global turnstiles this weekend. To wit: Disney's Lilo & Stitch added $113.1M from 52 offshore markets, lifting the international box office cume to $330.7M. The overseas drop was just 28%. The worldwide total through today is $610.8M. More from Deadline 'Lilo & Stitch' Kicks Up $63M Second Weekend, 'Mission Impossible 8' $27M+, 'Karate Kid: Legends' At $21M - Box Office Update 'Lilo & Stitch': All The Box Office Records Broken Peter Bart: Barry Diller's New Memoir Might Be The True Final Reckoning Paramount/Skydance's Mission: Impossible 8's sophomore offshore session was good for $76.1M, a great 33% dip from opening. The international total on the Tom Cruise-starrer is now $231.2M, and global is $353.8M. Before we dig into details on the above, note that Sony's Karate Kid: Legends, which kicked off international rollout in early May ahead of its wide global release this weekend, kicked up another $12M from 43 offshore markets this session. That takes the international cume to $26M through Sunday. Alongside domestic, the global gross to date is $47M. Major markets to come on this one are: Australia (June 5), Italy (June 5), China (June 7), Spain (August 8), France (August 13) and Japan (August 29). Now, turning back to Lilo & Mission… Disney's live-action take on the 2002 animated adventure has already become the No. 2 studio release of the year internationally, and is the No. 1 non-local title across Europe (except for Denmark and Finland), and in all markets across Latin America as well as Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Philippines and Thailand. Notable holds this frame include France (0%), Germany (-12%), UK (-28%), Australia (-29%), Brazil (-34%), Spain (-36%), Mexico (-40%), Korea (-44%) and Italy (-46%). Some markets saw increases, including Netherlands (+21%), Belgium (+13%), Saudi Arabia (+8%), Poland (+7%), Singapore (+3%) and Ukraine (+1%). New this session was Hong Kong ($1.1M), where the little blue alien opened at No. 1 and 4% ahead of The Minecraft Movie. Among other benchmarks, L&S is notably the 2nd highest grossing Disney live-action title of all-time across the Latin American region (behind only The Lion King); the 2nd highest grossing Disney live-action title ever in Mexico, 3rd highest in Colombia and 4th highest in Brazil. Further, it is the highest grossing film of 2025 in Italy (non-local), Brazil, Mexico and Thailand. The Top 5 to date are: Mexico ($45.9M), UK ($34.5M), France ($23.1M), Brazil ($21.6M) and Germany ($18.1M). Japan opens next weekend. As for Mission 8, audiences continued to accept. Notable strong holds were seen in Netherlands (-4%), Germany (-10%), France (-21%), Indonesia (-21%) and Japan (-23%). Also notably, China debuted this frame. This is a market that typically gravitates towards the franchise, but has been wonky of late with Hollywood fare. So, great news that The Final Reckoning became the highest-grossing imported film on a single day this year, and the fastest imported film to reach the RMB 100M mark in 2025. The gross there is a strong $25.2M while social scores are the highest of the franchise. The Top 5 markets to date are: China ($25.2M), UK ($22.3M), Japan ($18.5M), Korea ($17M) and France ($14.2M). Elsewhere, New Line/Warner Bros' Final Destination Bloodlines landed with another $14.4M from 75 offshore markets, a strong 37% drop from last weekend. The international running total is $117.6M through Sunday with worldwide at $229.3M. The Top 5 are: UK ($12.5M), Mexico ($11.2M), India ($7.6M), Philippines ($6.9M) and France ($6.7M). The film has also become the biggest horror movie of all time in Pakistan, and the 4th best ever there for a WB title.

‘Lilo & Stitch' Nears $800M Global, ‘Mission: Impossible – Final Reckoning' Tops $450M & ‘Ballerina' Bows To $51M WW
Updated: Disney's Lilo & Stitch continued to sew up strong business in its third weekend, with the global cume now at $772.6M as it closes in on $800M WW in the coming days. The international box office tally through Sunday is $436.8M after a $67.7M offshore frame (-47%). Paramount/Skydance's Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, meanwhile, has topped $450M worldwide with $450.4M through today. The offshore hold was also -47%, with another $40.6M contributing to the running $301.2M international box office. More from Deadline Why 'Ballerina' Didn't Leap Into The Rafters With $25M Opening - Sunday AM Box Office Update Tom Cruise Earns Guinness World Record For 'Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning' Stunt 'Ballerina' To Open Italy's Taormina Film Festival Before we look at more detail on the above, and other holdover play, the wide new entry this session was Lionsgate's John Wick spinoff Ballerina. The Ana de Armas-starrer, which is largely funded from foreign sales, came in below pre-weekend projections with $26M in 82 offshore markets for a $51M global debut. The top overseas starts on the Len Wiseman-directed actioner are China ($3M), UK ($2.5M) and Mexico ($1.9M) – in each of those markets, the film was the No. 1 new opener. Lionsgate self-distributes in the UK and Latin America. Ballerina will release in Japan and Italy in the weeks ahead; already on Tuesday, it opens Sicily's Taormina Film Festival. For more detail on Ballerina, see Anthony's deep dive here. Turning back to Lilo & Stitch, the No. 2 studio release of the year overseas, it's still the No. 1 non-local film in all material markets across Europe (save Finland and Norway) and everywhere in Latin America. Japan was new this session, and is the final market to join the party. It opened No. 1 there with $4M to rep the 3rd highest opening for a studio title in 2025 to date, just 2% below A Minecraft Movie. Elsewhere, it is the highest grossing film of the year in France, Italy, Spain, Brazil and Mexico, among others. Here are the Top 5 to date: Mexico ($56.8M), UK ($42.2M), France ($30.4M), Brazil ($28.2M) and Germany ($23.7M). In Mission: Impossible news, the Tom Cruise-starrer's 66 markets this weekend were led by China where it was No. 1 for the second frame in a row. The total there is now $47.5M with Maoyan predicting a $62M finish. It's easily the biggest Hollywood movie of the year so far there. The current Top 5 is rounded out by the UK ($27.8M), Japan ($23.4M), Korea ($20.5M) and France ($17.7M). In Imax, M:I 8 has grossed $69.1M globally which reps a franchise-best 15.3% of the overall global total for the Filmed For Imax movie. The international cume in the format is $38M. Also in holdover play, Sony's Karate Kid: Legends added $10M in 57 overseas markets for a $38.6M offshore cume and $74M global to date. Spain, France and Japan open in August. And, New Line/Warner Bros' Final Destination Bloodlines also saw a 47% drop, adding another $8.1M from 75 markets for an offshore cume of $133.6M and a global take of $257.2M. Also of note, Universal's live-action take on How to Train Your Dragon began previews this weekend in Korea, leading all play and grossing $4M through three days. It is off to a great start there and has a fantastic 99% CGV Egg score.
