This marks the second extension since its release on Chinese big screens earlier this year. It was previously announced on Feb. 19 that screening of the film would be extended to March 30 on the mainland.

As of Friday afternoon, "Ne Zha 2" had grossed over 15.23 billion yuan (about 2.12 billion U.S. dollars) globally -- placing it fifth in the all-time global box office rankings, less than 1.2 billion yuan shy of fourth-ranked "Titanic."

Released on Jan. 29 during the Chinese New Year, "Ne Zha 2" rocketed to the top of China's all-time box office chart within just nine days, before becoming the highest-grossing animated movie of all time globally on Feb. 18.
