Resident Evil: Afterlife earned $42.3 million from 3,559 screens, which was by far the biggest debut of its series (though the other movies had more gradual roll-outs). Over a third of this total came from a massive $15.5 million three-day launch in Japan. Other territory highlights included $6.4 million in Russia, $3.3 million in Spain, $2.95 million in Taiwan and $2.6 million in the United Kingdom. In territories where a 3D breakout was available, 3D showings accounted for an average of 81 percent of earnings. The movie has yet to debut in some major markets like France and Germany, and it's aiming to surpass Resident Evil: Extinction's $97.1 million as the series' highest-grossing movie.
