The Rock, as “San Andreas” star Dwayne Johnson was once known, may have to change his nickname to The Boulder if his new earthquake movie stays on its current roll at the worldwide box office.
Monday’s final figures show “San Andreas” brought in $64 million from roughly 60 foreign markets over the weekend, about $4 million higher than Warner Bros. had estimated Sunday. The domestic haul for the New Line action film co-financed by Village Roadshow was bigger than estimated as well, at $54.5 million, so it finished with nearly $120 million in its first weekend — or more than its $110 million production budget.
