>The R-rated comedy, which flopped in North America, has earned more in Germany than any other foreign market. It's no wonder why Dwayne Johnson has personally thanked German moviegoers via Instagram.
>Baywatch, Johnson's summer comedy, is riding a tidal wave of popularity in Germany, earning a huge $16 million to date, one of the best showings ever for an R-rated Hollywood comedy. And it's by far the best showing of any foreign market (the next closest is the U.K. with north of $12 million).
>Overall, Paramount's film adaptation of the classic bikini-and-surf TV show swam past the $100 million mark at the international box office over the weekend even while getting dunked stateside with $57.6 million to date.
>The secret to the movie's success at the German box office? The television show Baywatch was incredibly popular, while TV series star David Hasselhoff — who makes a brief appearance in the movie — is also a brand name there because of his singing career.
>In Germany, Baywatch ranks among the top 10 grossing films of 2017 so far, handily out-grossing the likes of Transformers: The Last Knight ($12.3 million), Wonder Woman ($7.9 million) and The Mummy ($7.5 million). The only two summer tentpoles that have done more business are Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 with roughly $30 million and Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales with north of $28 million.
That's exactly what it was. They were just looking for their greatest singer next to Heino.
