Box-Office Weekend: Spider-Man Outruns Flash

After only one week on top of the box-office weekend, The Flash succumbed to another masked hero as Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse crawled up two places to claim the top spot by a slim margin of $0.8 million.

In its fourth weekend of release, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse brought in $19.3 million to not only climb into first place of the weekend box office, but it also lifted its overall total to $317.1 million in the process. Holding steady in second place was Pixar’s Elemental, which finished with $18.5 million over the weekend, giving it a two-week tally of $65.5 million. Meanwhile, The Flash dropped from first place to third this weekend with $15.3 million. This gives the latest DC super hero film a two-week total of $87.6 million. Debuting in fourth place was the Jennifer Lawrence comedy No Hard Feelings which managed to bring in $15.1 million during its first weekend in release. This pushed Transformers: Rise of the Beasts down a spot to fifth-place, where it brought in $11.6 million to raise its three-week total to $122.9 million.

Climbing four spots to land in sixth-place this weekend, was Wes Anderson’s Asteroid City, which added $9 million over the weekend to bring the film’s two-week tally to $10.2 million. Falling two spots to land in seventh place was The Little Mermaid with $8.7 million. The film now claims a five-week total of $270.2 million. This pushed Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 from seventh- to eighth-place when it brought in $3.5 million over the weekend to raise its eight-week total to $351.1 million. Dropping three spots to land in ninth-place was The Blackening where it added $3 million over the weekend to lift its two-week total to $12.3 million. Finally, after finishing in eighth-place last weekend, The Boogeyman claimed the tenth spot this weekend with $2.5 million. This gives the film a four-week total of $37.7 million.

Only one film fell from the box-office weekend top ten this week as Fast X was pushed out after six weeks. Over that six weeks, the film amassed a total of $144.6 million before quietly driving off into the sunset.
