This figure includes the $13.3 million it made on Thursday night, which surpassed Aquaman, Shazam! and Wonder Woman, three other DC films.
Overseas, the crime-drama saw another $141 million from overseas showings, making a powerful $234 million global launch. Thea film also managed to score the biggest 2019 opening for a Warner Bros. title in 39 markets including UK, Russia, Italy, Spain, Poland, UAE, Japan, Korea, Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico and Australia. It was also the biggest October opening weekend in 21 markets including Spain, UAE, Brazil, Mexico and Australia.
Domestically, it also holds another record as the DC picture holds the record for the widest October opening ever, playing in 4,374 locations.
