Five Nights At Freddy's Movie Surpasses $200 Million Worldwide, Despite Second-Weekend Decline
Despite a slight decline in its second weekend, the highly anticipated Five Nights At Freddy's movie has phenomenally crossed the $200 million mark worldwide, surpassing all expectations and proving it to be a lucrative venture considering its modest $20 million budget
The Five Nights at Freddy's movie has surpassed $200 million in box office revenue, despite having a reported budget of only $20 million. Variety's latest box office figures reveal that the FNAF film earned an additional $19.4 million in the US during its second weekend, bringing the global total to over $217 million.
Like many movies, the FNAF movie experienced a significant drop in box office earnings after the first weekend. Its second-weekend domestic earnings of $19.4 million represented a 76% decrease from its remarkable $80 million opening weekend.
The FNAF movie has surpassed $113 million in box office earnings in the US alone. It is worth noting that the film was released simultaneously in theaters and on Peacock, which may have influenced its overall performance. Market experts quoted by Variety pointed out that this joint release strategy likely had an impact on the movie's box office figures, particularly during its second weekend.
Despite this observation, it is undeniable that the FNAF movie is a tremendous commercial success. It achieved the largest opening weekend ever for Blumhouse and within just 10 days, it has become the highest-grossing horror film of 2023 in the US, surpassing Scream VI ($108 million), M3gan ($95 million), and The Nun II ($85 million).
Emma Tammi (known for directing Into the Dark and The Wind) helmed the film, which was written by Cawthon, Tammi, Seth Cuddeback, Chris Lee Hill, and Tyler MacIntyre.
Starring in the FNAF movie are Josh Hutcherson (renowned for his role in The Hunger Games) and Matthew Lillard (famous for his portrayal in Scooby-Doo). The eerie animatronics are being brought to life by Jim Henson's Creature Shop.
