“Godzilla” is off and stomping at the international box office, opening at No. 1 in all seven foreign markets in which it debuted Wednesday.

The monster saga from Legendary Pictures and Warner Bros. opens in more than 3,800 theaters Friday in the U.S. and Canada, and many theaters will be offering early screenings at 7 p.m. Thursday.

The big lizard brought in $1.6 million in France, Warner Bros. said Thursday, and topped the market in Sweden, Belgium, Switzerland, Norway, Finland and Indonesia, where it posted that country's biggest single day of the year.
