Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Aquaman” has hit new heights at the international box office, with tickets pushing the DC Super Hero past the $800 million mark. The announcement was made February 19 by the head of Warner Bros. Pictures International Distribution, Tom Molter.
The impressive box office run overseas has propelled the film to become the highest grossing DC title ever both globally and internationally, as well as in 36 territories, including the Philippines (at Php 582-million), China, Spain, Brazil and Taiwan.
“Aquaman” is already the second-highest grossing Warner Bros. title internationally, behind only “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2,” and also stands as Warner Bros.’ biggest earner in 24 international markets, including the Philippines, China, Brazil, Indonesia, Taiwan and the UAE. The benchmark international number also drives the global box office figure to $1.13 billion and counting.

Molter stated, “‘Aquaman’ began its journey in China and has made its way around the globe through every major international market, most recently landing in Japan in early February to great success. Its remarkable box office throughout the world is a measure of the film’s ability to entertain across cultures and in every language, and we congratulate James Wan, Jason Momoa and the entire team for creating such a hugely entertaining cinematic experience for audiences everywhere.”
From Warner Bros. Pictures and director James Wan comes “Aquaman,” the origin story of half-surface dweller, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry that takes him on the journey of his lifetime—one that will not only force him to face who he really is, but to discover if he is worthy of who he was born to be…a king. The action-packed adventure spans the vast, visually breathtaking underwater world of the seven seas, and stars Jason Momoa in the title role.

Wan directed from a screenplay by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick and Will Beall, story by Geoff Johns & James Wan and Will Beall, based on characters created by Paul Norris and Mort Weisinger for DC. The film was produced by Peter Safran and Rob Cowan, with Deborah Snyder, Zack Snyder, Jon Berg, Geoff Johns and Walter Hamada serving as executive producers.
