Greenland 2: 6 Quick Things We Know About Gerard Butler’s Greenland: Migration

Greenland Brought In More Than $52 Million Worldwide In 2020, Despite Being Released During The Pandemic

Prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, Greenland was slated to open in theaters in the United States on June 12 of that year, but that date, and others like it, came and went, with the movie eventually forgoing its domestic run in favor of VOD release that October. And while American audiences never got to see Gerard Butler get his family to safety on the big screen, moviegoers in other territories ventured out to see the movie, which collected a total of $52.3 million worldwide throughout the second half of 2020, according to Box Office Mojo.

These numbers, combined with surprisingly favorable reviews, must have been enough for Greenland: Migration’s producers and financial backers (which include Anton, Basil Iwanyk’s Thunder Road Pictures, and Gerard Butler and Alan Siegel’s G-BASE) to put their resources into the upcoming sequel.
