Taissa Farmiga and Bonnie Aarons return for the horror sequel.
The Big Picture After a minor blip during the pandemic, The Conjuring Universe appears to be back on track thanks to The Nun II. The film passed a couple of significant box office milestones this weekend, despite direct competition from the third installment in director-star Kenneth Branagh’s Hercule Poirot series, A Haunting in Venice.
With a running domestic total of $56 million, and $102 million from international markets, the horror sequel has now made $158 million worldwide in just around 10 days of release. While it held off competition from India’s Jawan last weekend, it brushed aside the challenge presented by A Haunting in Venice this time around, as it added another $30 million to its account over the weekend.
The movie is currently playing in 72 overseas markets, with the top-performing overseas territories being Mexico , Brazil , Indonesia , Italy and newcomer France . Major markets still to open are Germany and Austria , followed by Korea and finally Japan . According to Warner Bros. the movie is outpacing fellow Conjuring Universe films in like-for-like markets, except for The Nun.
'The Conjuring' Film Series Is the Rare Post-Marvel Cinematic Universe That Has Worked Released in 2018 and directed by Corin Hardy, the first Nun remains the highest-grossing entry in the series at the worldwide box office, with $365 million. It also holds the record for the biggest domestic opening in the series’ history . The Conjuring Universe is perhaps the only example of an objectively successful post-Marvel shared franchise.
Both those films were directed by The Nun II’s Michael Chaves, who recently claimed that La Llorona shouldn’t be considered a part of the Conjuring series at all. The movie ended its global run with $123 million, while The Conjuring 3 grossed $206 million worldwide despite being released simultaneously on the Max streaming service as a part of W.B.’s controversial 2021 strategy. The franchise will continue with The Conjuring: Last Rites, which currently does not have a release date.
