A new, yet old, film claimed the top spot of the box-office weekend as Deadpool & Wolverine crept over Alien: Romulus to win the weekend by $2.1 million.
Dropping two spots to land in sixth place this weekend, Universal Pictures’ Twisters brought in $6.2 million for the studio, giving the film a six-week tally of $248.7 million. After debuting in fifth place last weekend, the Fathom Events 15th Anniversary release of Coraline dropped to seventh place where it took in $5.0 million to lift its two-week total to $24.1 million. The third debut of the weekend, Lionsgate Films remake of The Crow took in $4.6 million this weekend, landing it in eighth place. This was just enough to edge out Universal Pictures’ Despicable Me 4 which made $4.4 million over the weekend – and now boasts an eight-week total to $348.3 million. Finally, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures saw Inside Out 2 fall two spots to land in tenth place this weekend where it brought in $2.1 million, giving the film an impressive eleven-week total of $646.3 million.
Three films were forced from the box-office weekend top ten over the last three days. First of all, after claiming seventh place last weekend, the Warner Bros. product Trap leaves the top ten after four weeks in release and accumulating $38.6 million. Meanwhile, after debuting in the ninth spot last weekend, Stree 2 failed to crack the list this weekend, instead settling for a total of $2.6 million. Finally, after three weeks, the Lionsgate Films product
Borderlands dropped from the top ten with an overall total of $15.2 million.
