The Lion King tops another weekend at Australian box office as it nears US$1bn globally
As it nears US$1bn in global revenue, Disney’s remake of The Lion King has also continued to find success in Australia, bringing in another AU$11.25m across the weekend box office, to build a total of $41.02m.
Despite dropping 45% week on week, the film didn’t need to do much to stay on top. The closest challenger was Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man: Far From Home which brought in $1.3m for its fifth week out.

The reboot of the 1994 animated classic stars Donald Glover and Beyoncé Knowles Carter
