Every day, people want to see more Wicked. Wicked: For Good entered the global box office at number 1, with $226 million in ticket sales around the world. It’s now the fourth biggest opening of 2025, after the live-action Lilo & Stitch ($341 million), Jurassic World Rebirth ($322 million), etc A Minecraft Movie ($313 million). Just behind Wicked: For Good are two more high-flying do-gooders, Superman ($220 million) and The Fantastic Four: First Steps ($218 million).
150 million of those 226 million dollars were from the domestic box office. It was assumed that the second Wicked movie would enter the box office on top, but Ariana Grande is still saying thank you. On Instagram, she posted a letter thanking all the “Ozians” for making this movie a global phenomenon. “Whenever things get scary or you feel alone, home is wherever and with whomever we want it to be, and there’s no place like home,” she closed out her note, signing it “Your Glinda.”
Elsewhere at the box office, things were a little less magical. Now You See Me: Now You Don’t had a 68% drop-off in its second week of release, with $9.1 million added to its domestic bo Predator: Badlands came it at number 3 with $6.25 million, said Edgar Wright’s Running Man with $5.8 million. Ending the top 5 was Brendan Fraser’s prestige weepy Rental Family with $3.3 million. This is also the first time in 5 weeks a Mason Thames movie was not in the domestic top 5. Regretting you is at number 7 this week, and The Black Phone 2 at 9. But hey, top 10 is still top 10.
