Gareth Edwards' high-concept sci-fi has opened at number one in a number of territories.
The Big Picture The Creator began life in the worldwide box office this weekend with an opening global bow of $32.3 million. The film, directed by Gareth Edwards, combines a fresh sci-fi narrative with stunning visuals, and it's proving to be a compelling addition to the genre. In the domestic market, the film made a slightly underwhelming entrance, securing $14 million at the box office.
Overseas, however, the film performed more impressively — not unexpected given its diverse cast, and production in Asia where it was filmed in over 80 different locations. The Creator demonstrated its global appeal by collecting an impressive $18.3 million. The film reached the top spot in several key markets, including France, Spain, the UK , and Australia. It is yet to open in key markets such as Japan, Korea, and the Philippines.
To carry out this dangerous mission, Joshua assembles a team of highly skilled operatives. Together, they embark on a perilous journey deep into enemy territory. However, their mission takes an unexpected turn when they locate the supposed world-ending weapon they were sent to destroy. Instead of a destructive machine, they encounter an AI entity that takes on the appearance of a young child, nicknamed "Alphie," played by Madeleine Yuna Voyles.
