The movie is also expected to deliver a $42 million debut across the Labor Day weekend domestically.
The Big Picture As a late summer surprise, Sony’s The Equalizer 3 has topped the global box office with a spectacular performance in its opening weekend. Not only did the action film finish at the number one spot domestically, but it also generated a franchise-best haul from overseas markets, for a global debut of $60 million. Collectively, the two previous Equalizer movies had made $382 million globally.
Each film in the franchise has been directed by Antoine Fuqua and stars Denzel Washington in the central role of a violent ex-Marine named Robert McCall. The first film was released nearly a decade ago in 2014 and concluded its domestic run with $101 million and global run with $192 million. The Equalizer 2 was released four years later and delivered almost identical numbers — $102 million domestically and $190 million worldwide.
