for a domestic total of $124.5 million from 3,919 theaters.
This domestic-opening number is an estimate, not the final reported total. Major box-office trackers list The Odyssey’s opening weekend at about $123.5 million, not $124.5 million.
Full reasoning
This sentence gives The Odyssey's domestic opening weekend as $124.5 million, but the finalized box-office figures now available from major trackers are lower.
Both Box Office Mojo and The Numbers list the film’s domestic opening at $123,502,900. The Numbers also shows the day-by-day breakdown that sums to that final opening-weekend total: $50,977,435 on Friday, $41,735,485 on Saturday, and $30,789,980 on Sunday. Those figures total $123,502,900, not $124.5 million.
So the Wikipedia text appears to preserve an earlier studio estimate rather than the finalized opening-weekend actuals.

The Dark Knight Rises ($190.9 million in 2012)
The $190.9 million figure is wrong for a domestic opening-weekend comparison. The Dark Knight Rises opened domestically to about $160.9 million, not $190.9 million.
Full reasoning
The surrounding sentence is explicitly comparing domestic opening weekends for Christopher Nolan films. In that context, listing The Dark Knight Rises at $190.9 million is incorrect.
The finalized domestic opening weekend for The Dark Knight Rises was $160,887,295, according to The Numbers. Box-office reporting and historical charts consistently place The Dark Knight at $158,411,483 and The Dark Knight Rises at about $160.9 million, which is why they rank above The Odyssey's opening. A figure of $190.9 million does not match the domestic opening weekend reported by major trackers.

Oppenheimer ($180 million)
This figure is wrong in the context of domestic opening-weekend comparisons. Oppenheimer opened domestically to about $82.5 million, not $180 million.
Full reasoning
The sentence is comparing The Odyssey's domestic opening weekend with prior R-rated Universal openings. In that context, listing "Oppenheimer ($180 million)" is incorrect.
Both Box Office Mojo and The Numbers list Oppenheimer's domestic opening weekend as $82,455,420. NBCUniversal also used $180 million to describe Oppenheimer's combined domestic and international opening-weekend earnings, not its domestic opening. So the article appears to have inserted Oppenheimer's worldwide opening into a domestic-opening comparison.
That makes the $180 million figure factually wrong as written here.

"Oppenheimer" ... deliver[ed] an impressive $180 million in both domestic and international earnings during its opening weekend.
Internationally, it debuted to $130.6 million from 12,700 theaters in 73 markets
The international opening figure is wrong. Universal and Box Office Mojo report an international debut of about $140.3 million, not $130.6 million.
Full reasoning
Universal’s own July 20, 2026 box-office release says The Odyssey launched in 73 international markets and earned an estimated $140.3 million internationally. Box Office Mojo likewise lists $140,297,000 international for the film. That directly contradicts the article’s claim that the movie debuted internationally to $130.6 million. The market count is consistent, but the dollar amount is understated by about $9.7 million.
