The Warner Bros. and DC superhero pic easily topped the foreign box-office chart upon earning $126.4 million in its second weekend of play internationally for a global haul of $261.3 million, including a massive haul of $189.2 million in China.
After first opening China over the Dec. 7-9 weekend, Aquaman swam into an additional 42 markets this weekend.
