'Ne Zha 2,' the animated film that has set the Chinese mainland's box office ablaze, is creating a buzz among American moviegoers in anticipation of its official U.S. release on February 14. Pre-sale tickets for the highly anticipated film are selling rapidly, with an occupancy rate exceeding 90 percent, making them scarce.
The Chinese mythical animation achieved the highest-grossing status in the Chinese mainland's cinematic history last week, accumulating an impressive 8.4 billion yuan ($1.1 billion) in box office revenue by Monday afternoon. This remarkable performance propelled 'Ne Zha 2' into the top six global box office rankings for animated films.
Furthermore, the film has climbed to become the world's 30th highest-grossing movie in global film history, surpassing well-known titles such as 'Aquaman,' 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King,' and 'Spider-Man: Far From Home.'
The movie's distributor, CMC Pictures, shared this exciting development with China Media Group, highlighting the strong demand for pre-sale tickets in the United States.
