Nezha 2 Surpasses The Avengers! Can It Reach 15 Billion RMB at the Box Office?
Nezha 2 has recently become a hot topic on the Chinese internet. As of the time of writing, its box office has reached 11.3 billion RMB, surpassing The Avengers and ranking 11th in global box office history.
It's projected that Nezha 2 will reach a total of 16 billion RMB, which would make it the top-grossing animated film globally and place it 5th on the all-time box office chart.
The production company behind Nezha, $Beijing Enlight Media Co.,Ltd.(300251)$, has seen its stock soar by 264% in just half a month!
Outside of China, the movie is also being screened across various international markets.
📅 [Release Dates]:
🇦🇺 Australia & 🇳🇿 New Zealand: February 13
🇺🇸 United States & 🇨🇦 Canada: February 14
📅 [Upcoming Confirmed Releases]:
🇸🇬 Singapore & 🇲🇾 Malaysia
🇯🇵 Japan & 🇰🇷 South Korea
🌍 40+ other countries and regions
When Nezha 2 first opened in Australia, there was only one screening per day. Gradually, it increased to three screenings, and later, nine screenings daily—almost like the scheduling intensity seen in Chinese cinemas. I went to watch Nezha 2 today at noon, and the theater was still packed.
Many foreign viewers said they watched Nezha 2 because they loved the first movie. The stunning visuals, exhilarating fight scenes, and Nezha’s duality—chaotic yet righteous, powerful yet kind—were particularly captivating. Audiences also loved the Dragon King and his son, a sentiment echoed by Chinese fans. In fact, many commented that Ao Guang, the father of Ao Bing (the other main character), was incredibly charismatic!

The movie's success is also linked to the cultural familiarity Chinese audiences have with the Nezha legend, combined with the fresh twist of the "Demon Pill + Spirit Pearl" storyline.
But some people say that while Nezha 2 is good, it’s not good enough to deserve a 10-billion-yuan box office. The more popular the movie gets, the less they want to watch it.
Rumor has it that Nezha 2 might premiere in Singapore this March. Are you excited?
If Nezha 2 hits theaters in Singapore or Malaysia, would you go watch it?
And do you think it can reach 15 billion RMB at the box office? 🎬🔥

Internationally, screenings in Australia and New Zealand have expanded rapidly, with upcoming releases in the U.S., Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Korea, and more. While some feel the hype is excessive, many are eager to watch. If it premieres in Singapore or Malaysia, I’d love to experience it in theaters.
$Beijing Enlight Media Co.,Ltd.(300251)$ is the biggest financial winner, with its stock soaring 264%. If momentum continues, streaming deals and merchandise sales could drive even greater profits. Nezha 2 isn’t just a box office hit—it’s a cultural phenomenon.

🌟🌟🌟Nezha 2 is the most exciting movie to hit the theatres recently. It is China's highest grossing film ever and has raked in more than RMB 8 billion. That is USD 1 billion during the week long Lunar New Year holidays.
Nezha is being hailed as a symbol of progress in Chinese films and of national pride. It not only showcases the strong power of Chinese animation but also demonstrates the infinite possibilities of traditional Chinese mythology in the modern context.
It is hoped that Nezha 2 could earn another USD 1 billion and even beat the world's highest grossing film of all time - 2009's Avatar.
Last year it was China's Number 1 video game Black Myth: Wukong that shone on the world stage. This year it is Nezha's turn.
In Chinese's mythology there might be no other characters more rebellious than Monkey King Sun Wukong from Journey to the West and Nezha from the Investiture of Gods. Both movies were written during the Ming Dynasty which reigned China from 1368 to 1644.
With magical power, both Sun Wukong and Nezha defied the hierarchy, fighting against evil.
I grew up with both mythologies and remembered how captivated I was by the Monkey King and Nezha.
I will definitely watch Nezha 2 when it hits Singapore's theatres. I like the cheeky, toothy smile of Nezha and his various antics. Even better if it is available in iMax.
It is not surprising that $AMC Entertainment(AMC)$
I am super excited to watch Nezha 2 when it hits Singapore's theatres and make that a family affair as I am sure my kids would love to watch it too.

I personally have not watched nezha1 and generally not a fan for such genre. I think I will skip it but curiosity might get the better of me if the box office is insane[Facepalm] . I think it is definitely possible for it to reach 15billion at the box office. Afterall, it has yet to be on screen in other Asian countries where there is likely a sizeable population interested in this. Of course, the company behind it, Benjng enlight media will benefit from this! I think $POP MART(09992)$ will benefit from this and I do hope the stock price will continue to soar as I have re-entered the stock.[Miser] [Miser] companies who manufacture the related merchandise will be popular among fans and their prices should rise!

如果它在新加坡或马来西亚上映，我一定会去电影院支持。哪吒这个角色本身就极具魅力，他的成长故事和反叛精神让很多观众产生共鸣。而且，续作的制作水准明显升级，单从预告来看，画面更加精致，动作场面也更燃。这样的电影，在大银幕上观看绝对比电脑或手机屏幕更有冲击力。
至于票房能否突破150亿人民币，我觉得难度不小。虽然《哪吒2》在中国市场表现强势，但要再冲几十亿，就必须在海外市场大爆发。好莱坞大片能有全球票房神话，靠的就是国际市场的支撑。如果《哪吒2》能在东南亚、北美、欧洲打开局面，并且收获好评，那冲击150亿就有希望。
受益的公司肯定是光线传媒，它是主要出品方，票房越高收益越大。此外，相关衍生品、游戏、主题乐园等周边产业也会迎来红利。毕竟，一个成功的IP，不只是电影，背后还有更广阔的商业价值。
