Reports suggest that the opening figure for ‘Oppenheimer’ in China may be around $5.4 million. This also includes $300K in midnight shows. And as the weekend is setting in, this number is going to increase much more. 

Estimates are that ‘Oppenheimer‘ might bag more than $20 million over the weekends. It is safe to say that since the movie opened on a non-holiday week, these earnings are very good. Christopher Nolan’s movie has bagged $777 million globally as of now. So given the estimates, if the Nolan movie can keep it up in China, then it might cross the $1 billion dollar club.
