The Philippines’ highest-grossing theatrical feature, "Hello, Love, Again", continued its record-breaking streak into the weekend, becoming the first Filipino film to reach Ps1 billion/US$17 million in worldwide box office.
"Hello, Love, Again" ended last week (23 Nov) at Ps1.06 billion/US$18 million.
Starring Kathryn Bernardo and Alden Richards, "Hello, Love, Again" is the first collaboration between ABS-CBN’s Star Cinema and GMA Pictures.
The latest box office follows a series of record-breaking milestones since the film’s 13 November premiere in the Philippines.
Directed by Cathy Garcia-Sampana, "Hello, Love, Again" debuted at #8 in the U.S., grossing more than US$2.4 million after it premiered in 248 sites and prompting ABS-CBN to declare “another historic milestone”.
The film, a sequel to 2019’s Hello, Love, Goodbye, opened in more than 600 cinemas in the Philippines and broke records as the highest first-day grossing local film with Php85 million/US$1.5 million in ticket sales.
