Globally, the film has set a lots of records, including becoming the 1st film of the VirusCasedemic era to clear the $1-B threshold at the worldwide box office, a mark it made without China.

Meanwhile, The Matrix Resurrections and The King’s Man both continued to disappoint after soft holiday openings.
