The Odyssey is shaping up to be one of Christopher Nolan’s biggest films at the box office in China. It is making news for its potential to beat Nolan’s Tenet as his new big hit at the box office in China. It has already collected a solid amount from early previews in China, and, combined with the 10-day pre-sales, it has crossed the $10 million mark. Scroll below for the deets.
The film is moving closer to the all-time top 30 global grossers. In North America, the movie is inches away from surpassing Toy Story 5’s box office total to become the second-highest-grossing film of the year. It will be a close competition between Nolan’s film and Toy Story 5 for the #2 spot on the global grossers list. We have to wait a little longer to see the final results.
