Added: 455.8 million rubles.
Total fees: 1.35 billion rubles.

It would seem that after a powerful start, the second "Maleficent", following the general tendencies, should sink sharply, but in a week the sequel lost only a third of its viewers. This allowed him to easily overcome the billion-dollar mark and bypass the first part, which earned 1.31 billion rubles for the entire time spent in cinemas. If this continues, the "Lady of Darkness" can count on 2 billion rubles.
