Two new films cracked the box-office weekend top ten this past weekend, and one of them – Smile 2 – took over first place by a margin of $12.9 million.
Falling three spaces and landing in sixth place, Joker: Folie à Deux took in $2.2 million during its third weekend in release, bringing the total for Warner Bros. product to $56.4 million. Dropping two spots, Piece by Piece finished in seventh place with $2.1 million in its second week of release, raising its overall total to $7.6 million for Focus Features. This pushed Paramount Pictures’ Transformers One to eighth place where it brought in $2.0 million to lift its five-week total to $56.6 million. Sony Pictures Releasing saw Saturday Night drop two spots to land in ninth place where it added $1.8 million, bringing its four-week total to $7.6 million. Last, but certainly not least, the re-release of the Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures product The Nightmare Before Christmas took in $1.1 million and claimed tenth place in its second weekend of release.
Only two films were pushed out of the top ten this weekend (a big difference from the six bounced last weekend). After two weeks in release, My Hero Academia: You’re Next couldn’t crack the list for a second consecutive week and instead settles for an overall total of $4.6 million. Finally, Briarcliff Entertainment’s release The Apprentice managed to bring in $3.3 million over two weeks for the studio before falling from the top ten.
