Paramount's Sonic the Hedgehog 3 continued its box office run over its 13th weekend, but showed signs of slowing down as it nears the end of its theatrical run.
By the numbers: Sonic 3 added $78 thousand from 142 theaters, pushing its domestic total to $236 million.
- Sonic 3 picked up $660 thousand overseas, lifting its international total to $253.3 million and its worldwide total to $489.3 million.
Between the lines: Disney's Mufasa: The Lion King remained the stronger performer despite also being in its 13th week.
- Mufasa earned $1.19 million over the weekend across 1,175 theaters, bringing its domestic total to $252.4 million.
- Internationally, Mufasa grossed $461.7 million, bringing its worldwide total to $714.1 million.
What's next: It certainly appears that Mufasa has a stronger chance of crossing the $750 million mark worldwide, while Sonic 3 will likely settle just shy of $500 million.
