The amazing thing is that Resident Evil’s first-day collection at the Chinese box office is considerably more than it has in the entire North American territory. Interestingly, this is the second-straight Hollywood release, after « xXx The Return of Xander Cage, » which is having a better run in China than in its home territory.
Beijing-based Leomus Films, which distributed the movie across China, told The Hollywood Reporter that they have increased their full-weekend forecast to just below $85 million (520 million RMB).
