Warner Bros. Pictures, a unit of Warner Bros. Discovery Co, said on Sunday that worldwide revenues of the “Barbie” movie have surpassed $1 billion since its July 21 debut.
The company added in a statement that the comedy-fiction movie has received $459 million in the United States and Canada and another $572.1 million abroad since it hit theaters, for a total of $1.0315 billion.
Media analytics firm ComScore confirmed the revenue.
Warner Bros. said that Greta Groeg, the writer and director of the Oscar-nominated “Barbie”, also became the first female filmmaker to cross the billion-dollar revenue threshold for one of her works.
This was the third weekend in theaters for “Barbie”. Comscore said the film grossed $127 million worldwide on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, including $53 million domestically and another $74 million overseas.
Ticket sales for “Barbie” now rank second this year, behind “The Super Mario Brothers,” which premiered in April and grossed $1.357 billion at the box office.
