Beyonce’s ‘Renaissance’ Movie’s BIG Opening Weekend On Pace to Break Michael Jackson’s Longstanding Concert Film Box Office Record

Published: Saturday 2nd Dec 2023 by Rashad

Just a day after storming global box offices, industry analysts are predicting Beyonce‘s ‘Renaissance‘ concert film is set to do the same in movie history books as well.

Details inside.

‘Renaissance: A Film By Beyonce’ will reportedly earn $22-$24 million in the United States alone over its debut weekend. Global numbers are said to be between $40-$50 million.

The premiere figures are the largest to accompany any movie (regardless of genre) released in early December over the last two decades (per ‘The Hollywood Reporter). As of time of this report, the overall record for early December openings is held by Tom Cruise’s 2003 blockbuster ‘The Last Samurai‘ (with $24.3 million).

Among concert films, ‘Renaissance’ will undoubtedly mark the biggest premiere for any motion picture of its genre among Black women but it could be the largest for any artist of color if it lands on the north side of its predicted range.

At writing, the record for the latter belongs to King of Pop Michael Jackson whose 2009 docufilm, ‘This Is It,’ moonwalked to a cool $23.2 million opening at the box office. It went on to gross $72 million over its shelf life in theaters.

Here’s how Bey stacks up on the all-time list.

Biggest Concert Film Openings of All Time

(as of time reported)

Taylor Swift ‘Eras Tour’ ($92 million)

Miley Cyrus’ ‘Hannah Montana: Best of Both Worlds Concert’ ($31M)

Justin Bieber’s ‘Never Say Never’ ($29M)

Beyonce’s ‘Renaissance’ – $22M-$24M

Michael Jackson’s ‘This Is It’ ($23M)

One Direction’s ‘This Is Us’ ($15M)

Jonas Brothers’ ‘The 3D Concert Experience’ ($12M)

-figures do not account for inflation

The news comes just four months after Bey’s ‘Renaissance’ was crowned the most successful tour of all time by a Black artist – another title previously held by Jackson.

      Wrong Post…

      This is 🐝 not Tayble Stiff. 😆

    HasBeyn strikes AGAIN. 🐝 💯

    • white Chicks December 2, 2023

      Exactly, beneath Miley Cyrus “Hannah Montana”. 😉

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

        Renaissance film will easily cross $100 million in the Global box office.

        This figure is FAR more impressive than whatever the ERRORS film Grossed or whatever “Hannah MAYONNAISE” grossed.

        One artist makes GHETTO K’HIA EBONIC AFRICAN music while the other makes MAYONNAISE for MAYONNAISE by MAYONNAISE…

        Selling that stuff to white ppl is like selling Crack to tyrone biggums. 💯 .

      • YAHSHUA IS COMING December 3, 2023

        Please, do not ever in your life put Mayo Miley in the same category as beyonce, ever. She cannot dance or sing. At least do that before you compare lmfao

  3. Naïme December 2, 2023

    So Taylor debuted at n1 with 92 million and Weakyonce makes only 22 ?! 60 million less ?!

    I can’t but hollering at the irony of this so called and depraved queen flopping that hard.

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

      DISNEY POP music should give you an EDGE over an artist that makes GHETTO hood anthems.

      🐝 last POP song was a non single called BLOW (2014)

      Its like you comparing someone with WEALTHY parents (taylor) to someone who got half as wealthy but got it completely out the MUD 👑 🐝

      Tayble Stiff fans are an EXTREMELY irrelevant crowd of WHITE ppl that like mayonnaise.

      Yall literally DO NOT matter AT ALL and neither do your Numbers.

      Beyonce numbers are MORE impressive because there is no white privilege or typical/generic Disney pop present.

      Trailer Stiff is bigger if you base it solely on NUMBERS but not impact.

      Beyonce is a CELEBRITY to celebrities.

      More iconic and legendary by miles

      Getting more WHITE ppl to buy tickets when yur white yourself and make WHITE music isn’t much to flex about

      Its Pure White privilege…

      All white Artist have WHITE PRIVILEGE.

      • Wayne T December 2, 2023

        There’s those race card excuses I predicted 🤣🤣🤣 fact remains tayIor is the dominant artist in every part of that feild. Remember numbers don’t lie haters who can’t take their L do 😂😂🤣

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

        So the race card is irrelevant simply because other artist are white with lower numbers??? They still get a SALES BOOST just for being white and a HIGHER potential

        If beyonce was white, these numbers would be bigger

        That is a FACT 💯

        & Vice versa for TAYBE STIFF 😆 🤣

      • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

        Wayne T

        Tayble Stiff numbers have always been bigger

        Not due to music but POLITICS & RACISM

        POP >>>>>> R&B

        This is evident in the fact that beyonce has a MUCH stronger catalog and better visuals tho I will give Tayble credit for having GREAT VISUALS too…

        The music tho is MID… Only 10% is good.

  4. NICKISWIFT December 2, 2023

    Yall just make up any kind of records these days. Facts of the matter is, Taylor did $70m more her opening weekend. SHATTERING records. But if this makes Beyonce feel better about her pretentious self LOL.

    That’s the only “record” of MJ’s that Flopyonce will ever break

  6. jeans December 2, 2023

    Her PR team loves to spin mediocre numbers into a win! This is honestly average. Definitely on par in numbers with the other concert films, but 22-24milloon is not all that lol. Especially compared to Taylor’s.

    😆 🤣 😂

    They are NOT comparable. 💯

      Even if it doesn’t it won’t matter. The actual tour sold almost $600 million from 56 shows. That other untalented chick is doing 2x the amount of shows so just imagine if Bey added more international legs. Haters can never clock the Queen .

  9. Wayne T December 2, 2023

    Not seeing Eras tour film numbers HA! Here come the excuses and race cards being REVOKED

    There’s always a way to make it look as successful as it’s not

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

      It could have grossed less than $5 million, stay delusional.

  11. Flopwood December 2, 2023

    QUEEN T WINS

    F A T A L I T Y 💀

  12. Kelly December 2, 2023

    Quit the charade with Beyonce. The last time she was relevant was 2014. 2 good songs in a 20y career. Enough.

    • Diabetes UNBOTHERED December 2, 2023

      Meanwhile…

      3 #1 hits since 2014. 😆

      • white Chicks December 3, 2023

        Michelle Branch is better than Beyonce lol

  13. Yo December 3, 2023

    Wow so low. Taylor has now done over 250 million worldwide for her movie. Beyonce will probably not get 100 million

  14. Rihboy December 6, 2023

    Thats not what the other credible news sources are saying 🤣 its flopping. Especially overseas
