In a small update from Down Under, we see ‘Sex and the City’ doing great in another English territory. It started with the premiere in the U.K., where it did $4 million the day the movie was released and made another $20 million after that. And now the Australian girls are going crazy for the movie.

‘Sex’ had the highest grossing opening in Australia for a romance ever, just a little under $2 million. Meanwhile, Disney’s ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian’ made $470,000 during its opening day. Good, but in line with the somewhat disappointing US box office performance.

‘Sex and the City’ had the second best launch this year, only beat by ‘I am Legend’ with $2.6 million. The numbers might seem low compared to the US, but keep in mind Australia only has 21 million inhabitants. And this was all on a weekday.
