Godzilla has proven to be a gigantic juggernaut in the worldwide box office totals.
Variety reported:
“Godzilla” crashed through the $400 million mark at the global box office this weekend thanks to a massive debut in China.
The monster reboot earned $36 million on 9,000 screens, a record opening haul for Warner Bros., though just short of two other recent tentpoles, the $39.35 million Chinese debut of “X-Men: Days of Future Past” and the $39.23 million People’s Republic bow of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.”
“Godzilla” has now scared up $440 million worldwide, surpassing the $380 million figure that its backers said it needed to break even.
And, it hasn't even opened in Japan yet. That will come July 25.
