Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning China Box Office Update: Tom Cruise starrer crosses USD 30 million mark on 1st Tuesday; Set to top Dead Reckoning
The China box office has been a tough nut to crack for Hollywood films in the post-pandemic era, with most struggling to make a mark in the Middle Kingdom. While Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is clearly affected, it is still proving to be doing better compared to most other Hollywood imports. The Tom Cruise led actioner has crossed USD 30 million in China by early Tuesday, excluding ticket handling charges, and is the most preferred movie option in the country as well.
With positive buzz on platforms like Maoyan and Douban, Pinkvilla is optimistic that The Final Reckoning will comfortably surpass USD 50 million in its theatrical run. If it manages to climb close to USD 65 million, it would be hailed as a respectable result for a Hollywood release in China.
The Chinese market has been a challenging terrain for Hollywood since the pandemic. Only a handful of films, like Alien: Romulus, which grossed over USD 100 million, have managed to break through. In this situation, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning is carving out its own success story. Yes, the numbers shall be a fraction of what Fallout did in the country but that was a very different time.
Globally, The Final Reckoning has already amassed close to USD 375 million as of Tuesday, with its sights set on a lifetime haul of USD 600 - 650 million. While this would mark an improvement over Dead Reckoning, which was overshadowed by the Barbenheimer craze, the road to profitability is steep. Reports suggest the film's budget is a hefty USD 400 million, with an additional USD 100 million spent on marketing. Even if we consider a more conservative estimate of USD 300 million for production and USD 75 million for marketing, the film would need to gross over USD 800 million worldwide to break even.
Falling short of this mark in theaters, the franchise will likely lean on non-theatrical revenue streams like streaming, syndication, and home video, which have historically been a goldmine for the Mission: Impossible series, raking in millions annually.
As Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning continues its global journey, its performance in China offers hope for Hollywood's future in the region. While the box office shall be no where near what Fallout managed in 2018, it shall still better than what Dead Reckoning managed in 2023.

The movie is expected to surpass Dead Reckoning's China earnings. To be profitable, The Final Reckoning needs to earn $1 billion worldwide. The film's performance indicates a successful run. Tom Cruise is proving once again why he remains Hollywood's most reliable action star. His latest outing, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, released on May 23, 2025, has stormed the US box office, collecting a mighty US $129.2 million ( Rs 1110 crore) as of its second Tuesday, with a particularly strong $4.1 million haul reflecting a minimal -42.8% drop from the previous week — far steadier than Dead Reckoning's -56.3% drop in 2023. T his performance places The Final Reckoning among the top five second Tuesday grossers for Memorial Day releases in the U.S. Only Cruise's own Top Gun: Maverick ($13.8M), Lilo & Stitch ($8.4M), Aladdin ($7.8M), and The Little Mermaid ($6.1M) have fared better historically.

On Wednesday, The Final Reckoning grossed a solid $1.8 million, dropping just -14.3% from Tuesday across an impressive 89,000 screenings — matching its previous day's show count as per Luiz Fernando's report.

In just six days, the film has reached $35.7 million ( Rs 300 crore) in China. With $200,000 already clocked in pre-sales for Thursday while maintaining 89,000 screen count, it's on track to outpace Dead Reckoning's entire Chinese run and could become the first Hollywood release since Venom: The Last Dance (October 2024) to cross the $50 million mark locally — likely by this weekend itself. The film in India as well is doign brisky business and it heading towards Rs 100 crore mark. Made on a staggering $400 million budget, The Final Reckoning needs to hit the elusive $1 billion milestone worldwide to turn a profit, factoring in marketing spends and revenue splits. With Cruise's enduring fanbase and a relentless global rollout, the mission doesn't seem impossible at all.

Benny Blanco talks about his relationship with Selena Gomez, says 'Im just dreaming and praying every day'
Washington DC [US], June 5 (ANI): Benny Blanco revealed that he and his fiancee, Selena Gomez, are already considering having kids. "I love kids; I love being an uncle. I want to be a dad, though, God willing," said Blanco, reported Page Six. "I'm just dreaming and praying every day," he said of starting a family. In February, the couple purchased a USD 35 million Spanish-style estate in Beverly Hills, California. "I love making a house my own," shared Blanco, adding, "I'm not in there with the staple gun, but I'm in there with tchotchkes and a lot of creativity and heart. I hate it when you go into a person's house and you're like, 'Ooh, it feels like nobody lives here!' I don't want to be scared to sit down...." The ace musician admitted that he learned most of his relationship advice from his mom before he and Gomez became serious. "My mom always took the time to explain how a female mind works because she was going through so many dating traumas when I was growing up," he shared of his mother, who is divorced from his dad. "I've had some tough times, but I've always been a very happy person. I just wake up stoked every day," he said. Although Blanco shared that no one has told him about "emotional competency," he has learned what not to do by observing his friends' dating lives. "Some things I learn from friends of mine. I see them do something stupid, and I'm like, 'Oh my God, I'll never do that in a relationship,'" he said. "Then sometimes you see your friend do something rad, and you're like, 'Ooh, I'm taking that little idea'," according to Page Six. He added, "You stop learning when you stop listening." Over the years, Blanco has learned that men struggle to listen to women's wants. "I think people's biggest problem, especially men, is we don't listen all the time... A woman will tell you exactly what she needs," he said. At 37 years old, Blanco hopes he knows "how to treat a woman by now." The 'Only Murders in the Building' actress and Blanco went public with their love in December 2023, six months after they started dating. A year later, they got engaged, as per the outlet. Blanco has been open about having kids with Gomez for quite some time; the singer revealed last year that she can't carry her own children due to medical issues , reported Page Six. (ANI)

India's laptop leasing sector - Growth driven by youth, MSMEs, and startups: C-Prompt
India's laptop leasing market is experiencing notable changes, driven by demand from Gen-Z professionals, expanding co-working spaces, a developing startup ecosystem, and a growing MSME sector. As businesses increasingly focus on cost-effective IT solutions, the country's youth, who constitute a significant portion of the population, are playing a role in this shift. While laptop and desktop leasing is an established industry globally, India is showing significant development in this area. Companies are recognising potential benefits of leasing over traditional ownership, from reduced upfront costs to greater adaptability in a changing digital environment. C-Prompt Solutions, a company in India's IT leasing space, is observing this trend. With available inventory and scalable deployment solutions, the company aims to meet the needs of startups, MSMEs, educational institutions, large enterprises, and individual users. Co-founder KK Baldwa suggests India is well-positioned for IT infrastructure leasing, particularly for laptops and desktops as the country continues its digital evolution. 'In today's fast-paced digital economy, India's emergence as the fourth-largest global economy is supported by its tech-driven growth,' says Baldwa. 'The laptop leasing market here is growing and it is anticipated to continue its expansion.' With over 63 million MSMEs contributing nearly 30% to India's GDP and a startup ecosystem that includes numerous ventures, the demand for flexible IT infrastructure is substantial. According to Baldwa, Gen-Z professionals, MSMEs, and startups are expected to be key drivers of leasing adoption in the country. 'Leasing can enable businesses to manage capital, reduce certain liabilities, and potentially enhance operational efficiency,' he explains. 'In the post-COVID economy, cost-efficiency is important. Leasing IT assets offers organisations the ability to maintain competitiveness while addressing technology needs.' The advantages of leasing can extend beyond just cost considerations. It can help companies stay technologically updated, streamline asset management, and provide access to support. Baldwa comments, 'Leasing offers flexibility, scalability, and efficiency.' Globally, the laptop leasing market was valued at USD 151.1 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 200.7 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 3.07%. This growth is influenced by remote work trends, digital learning, and an increasing focus on sustainability. While the U.S. and Europe currently lead in adoption, India's demographic and economic landscape positions it as a developing contender. However, there are challenges. Companies in the leasing sector must manage technological advancements, lifecycle logistics, and maintain service quality amidst competition from OEMs and online rental platforms, all while working to maintain margins. Despite these challenges, the outlook appears strong. As Baldwa states, 'India is at a significant point in the leasing sector. With appropriate focus and adaptability, there is potential to develop in this space..'
