Scream VI sets a new franchise record at the domestic box office. After becoming the highest-grossing opening in the whole saga during its first weekend, the latest installment seemed to slow down its marvelous race thanks to the fierce competition in theaters. But, with the movie still being played, a new record appears.
The movie has managed to accumulate $103.8 million at the domestic box office and now occupies first place at the franchise top. The first
Scream movie ended its domestic run with just over $103 million in 1996.
Scream 2 made $101 million in 1997,
Scream 3 made $89 million in 2000,
Scream 4 made $38 million in 2011, and the fifth
Scream made $81 million last year.
Globally,
Scream VI is on the verge of passing $160 million, just behind
Scream 3’s $161 million gross. The first
Scream made $173 million.
Scream 2 made $172 million, the fifth
Scream did $138 million, and
Scream 4 finished with a franchise-low $95 million. Collectively, the
Scream film series has now grossed over $900 million at the global box office and more than $517 million domestically.
