For the third weekend in a row, Fifty Shades of Grey easily took first place at the international box office.
The worldwide phenomenon added $36 million from 59 markets, which brings its overseas total to a stunning $338.4 million. Holdover markets were off an average of 46 percent from last weekend.
The movie's only new territory was South Korea, where it opened in fourth place with $1.8 million; according to Universal, this comparatively low debut correlates with the fact that the book never really penetrated this market.
Fifty Shades of Grey has now earned $486 million worldwide, and is on track to reach $500 million in the next week or so.
Slay. Tbh, I read all the books and they're low-key tragic. When I go see the movie, hopefully it isn't as bad as the books. 50 Shades Darker is the worst of the 3.
