Bad Boys for Life remained in first place on the international box office chart with $44.04 million on 12,933 screens in 76 markets for totals of 96.5 million internationally and $217.33 million worldwide. This is already more than the first film in the franchise earned in total. However, before we get too excited, it did come out 25 years ago and not only does this film have 25 years of inflation behind it, it had huge growth in the international market to help it out as well. The film’s biggest new market was Russia, where it earned $5.02 million in 1,466 theaters, but it also had an impressive debut in France with $4.53 million on 619 screens. The film earned first place in both markets. As far as holdovers are concerned, the movie has already earned $10.82 million in the U.K., including $3.59 million in 559 theaters this past weekend. It is doing even better in Germany, if you take into account the relative size of the two markets, with $3.30 million on 669 screens over the weekend for a two-week total of $9.55 million. On the downside, the film is rapidly running out of markets to open in, so it won’t remain in the top five for too much longer, but it has already earned enough to ensure a healthy profit in the end.
