Over RM30 Million In 6 Weeks At The Box Office!

#1 Highest-Grossing Local Film Released in 2019


EJEN ALI THE MOVIE, an animated feature film from Primeworks Studios and WAU Animation about a young boy accidentally recruited as a secret agent, has crossed the RM30 million collections mark at the cinema box office today. The tremendous success of the Movie was earned through continuous support from movie-goers who thronged the cinemas repeatedly since the Movie’s release on 28 November 2019.

During the crowded year-end holiday period of the Movie’s release, EJEN ALI THE MOVIE remained steadfast against healthy competition from big-named Hollywood franchise films. Additionally, closing off what has been dubbed as the “Year of Malaysian Animation” with three blockbuster animation feature releases in 2019, EJEN ALI THE MOVIE emerged as Malaysia’s #1 local animated feature film and the #3 highest-grossing local film released of all time.

Ahmad Izham Omar, Chief Executive Officer of Primeworks Studios mentioned, “Primeworks Studios reached a historic milestone today with the success of EJEN ALI THE MOVIE. I truly believe that this achievement speaks volumes about the calibre of our animation and film industry and the talented creators at WAU Animation, and the fact that movie-going audiences proudly support high-quality Malaysian products. Thank you to everyone for their immense support to make EJEN ALI THE MOVIE the #1 Malaysian animated film and the #3 biggest Malaysian movie of all time.”
1 January 2020 further marked a very special date for fans of EJEN ALI in Indonesia, with the Movie released at 101 locations across the country. Available at selected CGV, Flix, Platinum, Kota Cinema and Cinépolis theatres, early reviews from Indonesia on social media have also been positive, including a special mention by Tere Liye, one of Indonesia’s leading novelists.

Usamah Zaid Yasin, Chief Executive Officer of WAU Animation added, “We are beyond thrilled to experience the record-breaking success of EJEN ALI THE MOVIE because when we first conceptualized the universe of EJEN ALI and the secret agent network, we had imagined Ali’s story to be told on the silver screen. Our immense gratitude goes to every single person who filled the cinema seats, recommended the movie to all their friends and family and shared so many positive comments. Thank you very much for making our dream a reality!”

Fans can also stream EJEN ALI THE MOVIE’s atmospheric film score released on YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, Joox and Deezer. The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack album follows the release of the Movie’s hit singles Bukalah Matamu, Kita Jaga Kita, Mamak Maju and Mama (Di Hatimu).
EJEN ALI THE MOVIE is powered by Tenaga Nasional Berhad and in partnership with Mydin and PediaSure, and is still screening across Malaysia and Indonesia.
