Universal Pictures made the surprising announcement yesterday thatDog Manwas nowstreaming on digital platforms, which came as a bit of a shock considering the movie is still producing strong numbers at the box office in only its third weekend in theaters.Dog Manadded another $9.7 million domestically to its total this weekend, and after a strong Monday, February 17 that saw the animated flick gross over $3.6 million, it has now officially passed $70 million at the domestic box office.Dog Manhas also added $17.6 million from international markets, bringing it toa global cumulative gross of $88 million, and it is expected to pass both $90 million globally and $20 million internationally by the end of this week, if not sooner.
Dog Mankicked off its theatrical run in style over the weekend of January 31, earning a whopping $36 million to finish ahead of the long-legged goliathMufasa: The Lion King, and also newer arrivals likeOne of Them Days, the road trip comedy starringKeke Palmerand SZA.Dog Manexperienced quite the drop during its second weekend in theaters, falling off at a 62% rate on its way to grossing another $13 million, which was still enough to take the top spot ahead of more newcomers such asLove HurtsandHeart Eyes. The animated film starringPete Davidsonfinally passed off the #1 spot at the box office this weekend and fell all the way to #4, losing toCaptain America: Brave New World,Paddington in Peru, and evenHeart Eyes.
