Mamma Mia! Surpasses Titanic’s UK Record
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Universal, Adaptation, Musicals, Romance, Comedy, Box Office
Even though The Dark Knight is still far from surpassing Titanic’s box office record, the 1997 blockbuster did just see one of its titles sink.
Just days after receiving several Golden Globe nominations, Mamma Mia! broke a 10-year old UK record. The musical - having now earned over £69.1 million ($105.8 million) - is officially the top grossing movie in the United Kingdom. By the time Titanic had completed its run in 1998, it had raked in £69 million.
The Universal Pictures entry means Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone (a.k.a. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone) has now been pushed to third place. That film went on to gross £66,096,060 after it was released in 2001.
