It took just over a week, but Alien: Romulus has now overtaken the entire domestic box office total of its predecessor in the long-running science-fiction franchise, Alien: Covenant. Released in 2017, the movie was seen as an under-performer, especially in comparison to its own precursor, 2012’s Prometheus. That being said, Alien: Covenant received positive reviews, and appeared to reignite interest in the series after several years of false hope.
Somewhat surprisingly, the movie is doing well in overseas markets, particularly China. Alien: Romulus has generated over $150 million from international markets so far, for a cumulative global run of $226 million. In its third weekend, the movie should be able to overtake Alien: Covenant globally as well. But before that, it will pass AVP: Alien Vs. Predator’s $80 million domestic haul, and will then set its sights on overtaking the second film’s $85 million lifetime haul.
Produced on a reported budget of $80 million, it’s the cheapest film in the franchise since 2007’s Alien vs. Predator: Requiem, which reportedly cost $40 million. Minus the spin-offs, it’s the cheapest one since 1997’s Alien: Resurrection, which reportedly cost $70 million to produce. You can watch the movie in theaters, and stay tuned to Collider for more updates.
