The live-action Pokémon film Detective Pikachu had the biggest opening weekend of any video game movie in the US, but its performance in China left it lagging behind Warcraft worldwide
According to data published by Variety, Detective Pikachu's single biggest market was the United States, where it earned $58 million in ticket sales from 4,202 screens.
Detective Pikachu earned more in the US than the previous record holder, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, which grossed almost $48 million (not adjusted for inflation) when it opened in 2001.
