The George Clooney and Julia Roberts-led romantic comedy TicketToParadise is steadily approaching $140 Million at the global box office.
Universal’s bid at counter-programming appears to have paid off. Not only is the romantic comedy Ticket to Paradise holding well at the domestic box office, but the film is also quietly posting impressive numbers worldwide. Starring Julia Roberts and George Clooney as a warring divorced couple who are forced to reunite for their daughter’s sudden wedding, Ticket to Paradise has passed the $90 million mark in overseas markets.
The film is currently playing in 78 international territories, and actually began its global rollout a couple of weeks before its domestic debut last month, alongside the superhero film Black Adam. With $46.7 million at the domestic box office, the film has made nearly $140 million globally, against a reported budget of $60 million.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY This is a win not only for the romantic comedy genre, which has all but moved entirely to streaming in recent years, but also for movies targeted at older crowds. Last year was particularly disappointing for adult-skewing dramas; Steven Spielberg’s West Side Story to Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel were some of the more notorious bombs.
Reviews for Ticket to Paradise have been mixed. Collider’s own Emma Kiely wrote in her C- review, “Ticket to Paradise, if anything, is an example of the importance of star power and how sometimes a lousy script can be swept aside for two old friends taking center stage once again.” The film is produced by Roberts, Lisa Roberts Gillan, and Marisa Yeres Gill with Red Om Films, Clooney and Oscar winner Grant Heslov for Smokehouse Pictures, and Tim Bevan, Eric Fellner, Sarah Harvey, and Deborah Balderstone. Directed by Ol Parker, who is best known for Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again, the film also stars Kaitlyn Dever, Billie Lourd, Maxime Bouttier and Lucas Bravo.
