After only one week on top of the box-office weekend top ten, Black Phone 2 was replaced by newcomer Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc by a margin of $4.3 million.
During the course of its first weekend in release, Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc managed to bring in $17.3 million for Sony Pictures Releasing and easily claim the top spot of the box-office weekend top ten. This was more than enough to push last weekend’s top film, Black Phone 2, to second place where it brought in $13.0 million for Universal Pictures, raising its two-week tally to $49.1 million. Meanwhile, Paramount Pictures International enjoyed a third-place $12.9 million debut for Regretting You. In fourth place, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures witnessed a similar $9.1 million debut for its biopic of The Boss entitled Springsteen: Deliver Me from Nowhere. This debut offset the drop of the studio’s Tron: Ares from second to fifth place as the film added $4.9 million this weekend to give it a three-week total of $63.4 million.
Similarly falling three spots to stop in sixth place this weekend, Good Fortune managed to bring in $3.1 million for Lionsgate over the last three days to lift its two-week total to $11.8 million. Meanwhile, Neon saw its Shelby Oaks debut in seventh place with $2.4 million taken in over the weekend. After a fourth-place finish last weekend, One Battle After Another dropped four spots to land in eighth place this weekend where it brought in $2.3 million to raise its five-week total to $65.8 million. Paramount Pictures International also saw its Roofman fall four places to claim ninth place with $2.0 million in its third week of release, raising its overall total to $19.4 million. Finally, the Angel release of truth & Treason fell from sixth- to tenth-place where it took in just over $933,000, giving the film a two-week total of $4.8 million.
Again, four films were forced from the weekend box-office top ten as last week’s seventh- through tenth-place films all failed to make this weekend’s list. After five weeks in release, the Universal Pictures International product Gabby’s Dollhouse: The Movie has brought in a total of $31.2 million before falling out of the top ten. Meanwhile, Warner Bros. saw The Conjuring: Last Rites bring in a total of $176.7 million over its last eight weeks in release. After only two weeks in release, and amassing a total of $2.4 million, After the Hunt also dropped from the top ten. Finally, Affirm Films saw Soul on Fire earn a total of $6.7 million during the last three weeks.
