Barbenheimer indeed! Barbenheimer exploded over the weekend, generating an estimated $235.5 million in ticket sales and reinvigorating the domestic box office.<\/p>\n

Barbie<\/a><\/em><\/strong> tallied around $155 million during its first three days in theaters, the highest opening of 2023. Its counterpart Oppenheimer<\/a><\/strong><\/em> snared an estimated $80.5 million during its debut. The final numbers for the pair\u2019s debuts will be revealed Monday.<\/p>\n

Barbie<\/em> had the largest opening weekend of 2023 and the biggest-ever debut for a female director.<\/p>\n

Variety<\/a><\/em> reports that Oppenheimer<\/em> is looking at an astonishing $80.5 million debut, with 47 percent coming from premium large-format ticket sales. The jumbo-sized 70mm IMAX print of Oppenheimer<\/em> is showing in just 19 theaters across the United States, and those tickets are already sold out for weeks.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a similar situation across the globe. Oppenheimer<\/em> has also grossed $93.7 million from international markets, with more than a third of that coming from IMAX showings.<\/p>\n

Barbie<\/em> has made the biggest domestic start for a female-directed movie. Its closest comparison is Wonder Woman<\/em> in 2017, directed by Patty Jenkins<\/strong>, which raked in about $38 million domestically on opening day, according to Box Office Mojo. Captain Marvel<\/em>, co-directed by Anna Boden<\/strong> and Ryan Fleck<\/strong>, brought in about $62 million.<\/p>\n
