China’s 2025 summer box office surpasses 2024, led by domestic films

China’s summer box office closed strong, topping 11.6 billion yuan—already above last year’s total, with final numbers set to pass 12 billion. Leading the season was Dead to Rights, a Nanjing Massacre drama earning 2.8 billion yuan, followed by hit animation Nobody, now the highest-grossing 2D film in China. Other top titles include Jackie Chan’s The Shadow’s Edge, The Lychee Road, and Jurassic World Rebirth. The boom isn’t just in theaters—films like Nobody are fueling merchandise sales and even tourism, as provinces turn movie locations into travel routes.
