The new James Bond movie titled ‘No Time To Die’ has emerged as the first Hollywood blockbuster movie to gross as much as $100 million internationally without the aid of a China release.
According to Deadline, the film – directed by True Detective auteur Cary Joji Fukunaja – is poised to make an estimated $112.9 million in its opening weekend at the international box office.

Previous franchise instalments Skyfall and Spectre debuted internationally with $109 million and $124 million respectively, but this was of course in a pre-pandemic world. For comparison then, F9’s international box office for its first weekend racked up $69 million.
The film will then debut in the US and Canada 8 October and in China 29 October.
