Global Box Office: Tom Cruise's Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning zooms past USD 500 million after 4th weekend
Christopher McQuarrie's Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, led by Tom Cruise, has finally crossed USD 500 million at the global box office after it's 4th domestic weekend. At the time of this article, it stands at around USD 506 million. The movie, with an estimated budget of USD 300-400 million excluding marketing expenditure, is set to end its run grossing a handsome USD 600-625 million, with roughly USD 200 million coming from the domestic markets.
If not for the budget, this is a solid result for Tom Cruise, who continues to woo audiences even at the age of 62. While the movie won't turn a profit in its theatrical run, it eventually will through syndication. Mission: Impossible has a good audience on digital and this audience is expected to lap onto the new MI film, like they have lapped onto every MI film in the past.
Coming back to the theatrical performance of Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, it has put up a good performance in China, considering the post-pandemic situation for Hollywood movies. It became the first movie in over half a year to cross USD 50 million in China, reiterating the love the Chinese have for Ethan Hunt. It obviously isn't the highest grossing Mission: Impossible movie in the Middle Kingdom. But the fact that it has bettered Dead Reckoning by an over 50 percent margin is something that the makers of the film would happily take. To note, China is the biggest market for the eighth installment of the action franchise.
The action movie has and still is enjoying a leggie run at the India box office. After its franchise best start, it saw higher than normal drops on weekdays. But it has done well to stabilise itself. The movie shall end its theatrical run in India with roughly Rs 94-95 crore net on the board. That will make The Final Reckoning, the second highest grossing Mission: Impossible movie in India, only behind Dead Reckoning.
Hollywood summer is stacked with big releases every week. Elio, F1, Jurassic World: Rebirth, Superman and Fantastic Four: First Steps are among the most anticipated films in the next couple of months. It is the reception of these movies that will give us an idea whether M:I8 grosses USD 600 million or USD 625 million.
You can watch Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning in theatres now.

F1 India Box Office: Brad Pitt starrer amazes with a 40 percent growth on Saturday; Nets Rs 12.50 crore in 2 days and set to emerge a HIT
Joseph Krasinski's F1 starring Brad Pitt, Kerry Condon and others, showed a stiff 40 percent growth on its second day at the box office after a superb first day of Rs 5.25 crore. With Rs 7.25 crore net on day 2, the total of F1 stands at Rs 12.50 crore and by the end of the weekend, it should be Rs 20 crore net. The Day Wise Net India Collections Of F1 Are As Under F1 Stands At Rs 12.50 Crore Net After 2 Days In India F1 got a start and the strong word around the film should help it trend well in India, despite competition. The fact that it retains IMAX screens in week 2 as well shall ensure remarkable numbers even when Jurassic World Rebirth hits theatres next week. Final collections in the range of the superhit Final Destination: Bloodlines can't be ruled out strictly by the kind of acceptance that it enjoys. That would also make F1 among the highest grossing original (not part of any IP) movies in the country. F1 Crushes Pre-Release Predictions Rather Comfortably The global numbers of F1 through Friday have come and they are around USD 64.50 million. A global weekend pushing to USD 150 million is what is expected now. The opening weekend projections prior to the release were around USD 100 million and they shall be crushed rather comfortably, now. The movie's high budget won't be easy to recover theatrically. But if F1 manages to cross USD 500 million globally by the end of its run, it will be seen as a good result if not great; especially given the pessimism in the trade because its release is right before giants like Jurassic World Rebirth and Superman. F1's Numbers Show That Brad Pitt Still Has The Ability To Pull Audiences To Theatres With F1, Brad Pitt has shown that he still has it in him as far as getting people to theatres is considered. The next movie the actor works on is a Netflix original. His next theatrical venture is waited for with bated breath. F1 plays in theatres now. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates on F1 and Brad Pitt.

Still not over Squid Game 3's most painful death? More K-Dramas with sad character endings you need to watch
Squid Game has come to an end with season 3, and a lot more deaths have left people numb this season. The final death, in particular, is one they did not wish for nor did they see it coming. Among the many sacrifices, this death is sure to haunt fans of the series for a long time to come. Although the death hit the hardest in Squid Game, there are a lot more deaths that hit the hardest in K-Dramas itself. Right from Goblin to Hwarang, there were sacrifices that felt too painful to handle. These sad character endings remain in our head, rent-free. A still from Squid Game Season 3 From Goblin to Hwarang, find all the latest OTT releases on OTTplay Premium When people say Goblin is the G.O.A.T of K-Dramas, they were not kidding. The series has everything that a K-Drama essentially is, including the biggest K-trauma of all time aka a painful death. Ji Eun-tak, who spent her whole life being spared only to see ghosts ask her for a favour because she is Goblin's wife, already lead a tough life. And then, when she had it all, Eun-tak learned that her life was coming to an end. She had to break free from the circle and be reborn to eventually marry Kim Shin aka the Goblin. Her death and the waiting period were the toughest on both Goblin as well as the viewers who were invested in their cute love story. Kim Mi-young's baby in You Are My Destiny Squid Game 3's story of the baby is probably inspired from You Are My Destiny, only this time, the baby dies. Kim Mi-young wants to save her baby but either only her or the baby can survive. Although she wants to save the baby over herself, Mi-young's selfish ex Gun saves her and lets the baby die. The news of losing her baby was already hard on Mi-young and Gun refuses her proposal to stay together either. This makes it a sadder moment. Han Sung in Hwarang Playing an innocent character in his debut K-Drama, BTS' Kim Taehyung aka V decided to give everyone a traumatic ending to his character. He decided to stay loyal to Moo Myung and keep him away from all harm's way. Thus, when he learns the news of his grandfather trying to poison and kill Moo Myung during a sword fight, Han Sung swoops in and dies instead. The unexpected death hit hard, especially because it was V's acting debut with Hwarang. He has not worked in another K-Drama since. 365: Repeat The Year being Squid Game recap, Hyeon-ju getting the harshest treatment of all 365: Repeat The Year has a concept similar to Squid Game. Many characters experience painful deaths, which is also a concept common with Squid Game. However, if like Gi-hun this season, we had to pick a death that hit the hardest, it would be Hyeon-ju. He had to die along with Ga-hyun every single time, and wake up with no recollection of the gruesome death, only to be faced with the cruel destiny once in every 365 days. Every single year, they would die only to wake up with no recollection of what happened and live life again while waiting for the day of their painful deaths, The Final Destination style. By the time of the series finale, the real murderer even framed Hyeon-ju for all the murders and finally confessed to his crime of resetting the timelines 'just for fun' with a wide smile. All of Do Hyun-soo's victims in Flower of Evil A past experience and near-death experience pushes Do Hyun-soo to explore what painful death would be like. Thus, he releases hell upon his victims while pretending to live as Baek Hee-sung. Hyun-soo's own mother explored the idea of painful death before dying in the same manner. Now, Hyun-soo has a silver box stored somewhere which hides the fingernails of his victims so far.
