Although the critically acclaimed zombie sequel 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple didn&#8217;t perform as expected, some others managed to attract audiences to theaters. On the time of writing, Scream 7 is the highest-grossing horror movie of 2026 thus far with a formidable <strong>$207.6 million<\/strong> worldwide haul, in accordance with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/year\/world\/2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Lee Cronin\u2019s latest directorial effort, The Mummy, clinched the No. 2 spot amongst this yr\u2019s horror releases after recently outgrossing Sam Raimi\u2019s Send Help, in accordance with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/year\/world\/2026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>. It stays to be seen whether it will possibly retain its No. 2 spot amid eagerly anticipated horror movies like Evil Dead Burn, Insidious 6, and Zach Cregger\u2019s Resident Evil, all lined up for release in the approaching months.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After playing for over two weeks in theaters, Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy has grossed <strong>$119.4 million<\/strong> worldwide. Nevertheless, it&#8217;s virtually unimaginable for it to now surpass the worldwide earnings of Brendan Fraser\u2019s 1999 hit, The Mummy <strong>($417.6 million),<\/strong> in accordance with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/title\/tt0120616\/?ref_=bo_se_r_2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>, and its sequels and Tom Cruise\u2019s 2017 reboot, which grossed <strong>$409.2 million<\/strong> worldwide, in accordance with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/title\/tt2345759\/?ref_=bo_se_r_3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now, first, let\u2019s take a have a look at how Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy performed on the box office, in accordance with data from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/release\/rl3315499009\/weekend\/?ref_=bo_rl_tab#tabs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy \u2013 Box Office Summary<\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">North America: <strong>$25.8 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">International: <strong>$93.6 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Worldwide: <strong>$119.4 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Because it continues its theatrical run, let\u2019s take a have a look at how Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy stacks up against the Saw franchise and whether it will possibly outgross Saw III, the highest-grossing film within the series at the worldwide box office.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Saw Franchise \u2013 Box Office Performance (Worldwide)<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Listed below are the worldwide totals of every film within the Saw franchise, in accordance with data from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boxofficemojo.com\/franchise\/fr3645345541\/?sort=releaseDate&#038;sortDir=asc&#038;ref_=bo_fr__resort#table\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Box Office Mojo<\/a>.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw (2004): <strong>$103.1 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw II (2005): <strong>$147.7 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw III (2006): <strong>$164.9 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw IV (2007): <strong>$139.4 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw V (2008): <strong>$113.9 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw VI (2009): <strong>$68.2 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw 3D (2010): <strong>$136.2 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Jigsaw (2017): <strong>$103 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Spiral (2021): <strong>$40.6 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify;\">Saw X (2023): <strong>$112.8 million<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What The Numbers Indicate<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The above figures show the top-grossing entry within the Saw franchise is Saw III, which earned<strong> $164.9 million<\/strong> globally. With a current worldwide total of <strong>$119.4 million<\/strong>, Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy must earn an extra<strong> $45.5 million<\/strong> to outgross Saw III.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Mummy has been performing well not only in North America but in addition in several international markets, including multiple European regions, Mexico, and India. So, whether it will possibly close this <strong>$45.5 million<\/strong> gap to surpass Saw III may rely upon how strongly it holds in each the domestic and overseas markets in the following 2-3 weeks. That said, it\u2019s still a troublesome goal to attain at this stage. Nevertheless, the ultimate verdict will probably be clear as its theatrical run continues.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>What\u2019s Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy All About?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">When a journalist\u2019s young daughter mysteriously disappears within the desert, she is assumed to be lost eternally. Eight years later, the girl suddenly returns, and this shocks the family. But what begins as a long-awaited reunion soon turns right into a terrifying nightmare. The film stars Jack Reynor, Laia Costa, May Calamawy, Natalie Grace, and Veronica Falc\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Lee Cronin\u2019s The Mummy \u2013 Trailer<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><noscript><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lee Cronin&#039;s The Mummy | Official Trailer\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XJ0uv-phsDk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/noscript><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Stay tuned to Koimoi for more box office updates and stories.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Must Read:<\/strong> The Devil Wears Prada 2 North America Box Office: Opening Day Alone Beats Original\u2019s 3-Day Weekend<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Follow Us:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/koimoidotcom\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/koimoi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Koimoi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Koimoi4Bollywood\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/news.google.com\/s\/CBIwo7yAqUE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Google News<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lee Cronin The Mummy Worldwide Box Office (Photo Credit: YouTube) 2026 has been an interesting yr thus far, so far as the box office performance of horror movies is worried.
