It's official!
Thor, the epic Marvel tale starring Chris Hemsworth, makes it into the international top five in its box office debut. From THR.com:
Also having a concentrated rollout in Australia was Paramount’s
Thor, which kicked off its market run at 220 venues, drawing $5.8 million on the weekend for a mighty per-screen average of $26,363. The market bow was 1% ahead of the opening in Australia of 2008’s
Iron Man, said Paramount.
“With the public holidays (Down Under) continuing on Monday and Tuesday, and school holidays in three states through next weekend,
Thor should continue to score outstanding results as it heads into its wide international release next weekend, a week ahead of its domestic bow,” said Paramount.
Directed by Kenneth Branagh and costarring Natalie Portman and Anthony Hopkins,
Thor is a Marvel Ent. outing, an action drama based on a Stan Lee comic book about a renegade warrior from another realm who winds up defending planet earth. It ranked No. 5 on the weekend overall.
