By Fuzzy Mushroom · Published
Sony's Resident Evil reboot from Weapons director Zach Cregger has crossed $400 million at the global box office, with about $157.4 million in North America and $242.6 million overseas. It is now the highest-grossing live-action film in the franchise, beating 2016's The Final Chapter ($312 million), and Cregger's biggest hit ahead of Weapons ($270 million). Made for roughly $75 million, it opened to a series-best $60 million domestically in September and kept drawing crowds through October.
