Cocorico 2 debuts half as well as Cocorico at the French box office
Less than 30,000 entries in 650 theaters this Wednesday.
Little phenomenon of the year 2024, Cocorico had gathered almost 2 million spectators. The Christian Clavier-Didier Bourdon duo is back today to make fun (again) of its origins. But the public is already following less: Cocorico 2 brought together around 26,000 spectators this Wednesday, with a small average of 12 entries per screening in 650 theaters. It’s much less than the first Cocorico which made more than 60,000 curious people scream (with laughter) two years ago.
A start half lower, which echoes that of Guarded Hunt 2 – another sequel to a hit comedy from 2024 – which sold 33,000 tickets on its first day late last year (before finishing at 1.2 million admissions).
Not far behind, we can note the very good launch of Wedding Nightmare: Part Two. The horror film by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett already has 17,000 admissions in 280 theaters after just one day. A good ratio, but still far from the 40,000 spectators at the start of the first part, in 2019 (475,000 at the end of the French career).
