Gone Girl is officially David Fincher's most successful movie at the box office
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is no longer director David Fincher's most successful movie at the American box office. That accolade can now go to his most recent work, Gone Girl.
This past Friday, Gone Girl brought in $1.8million at the box office helping Gone Girl secure the feat, bringing its current domestic total to $129.6million in just under a month. It currently stands third in Fincher's all-time box office releases worldwide. So far, Gone Girl has amassed $256.7million around the world, trailing behind Se7en ($327 million) and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button ($333million).
Gone Girl can also lay claim to being Fincher's most successful opening weekend release, beating out his previous holder, Panic Room. Gone Girl took $37.5million in its opening weekend, surpassing Panic Room by over $7.5million. It is expected that Gone Girl will add to these domestic and worldwide totals, with it being forecasted to bring in a further $8million this coming week.
