Hobbs & Shaw Global Box Office: The Rock and Jason Statham starrer crosses the USD 200 million mark
The Rock and Jason Statham starrer Hobbs & Shaw is winning it at the box-office when it comes to the global market. The Fast & Furious spin-off movie has crossed the $200 million mark globally.
The Rock and Jason Statham will be extremely happy with how the first spin-off from the Fast & Furious franchise, Hobbs & Shaw, is faring at the box-office. While the numbers aren't too extravagant, it's definitely leaving room for futures sequels based on the characters of Luke Hobbs and Deckard Shaw. Hobbs & Shaw doesn't lay too much stress on the previous F&F franchises and instead works towards building the story arcs of the two titular characters along with Idris Elba and Vanessa Kirby, who equally pack a punch!
When it comes to the global box-office numbers, Hobbs & Shaw has collected $220 million and counting. The North American box-office saw the Dwayne Johnson starrer earn $8.52 million on Tuesday while the total collections stand at $74.431 million, which is pretty impressive for a film releasing in the brink of summer ending. When it comes to the India box-office, Hobbs & Shaw has crossed the Rs 50 crore mark and is the fifth-highest Hollywood grosser trailing behind Avengers: Endgame, The Lion King, Captain Marvel and Spider-Man: Far From Home. Hobbs & Shaw is yet to release in China (August 23, 2019) and it's a big market for the F&F franchise.
