Please find the Top 10 Weekend Box Office Results below.
The Super Mario Bros. Movie
For the third weekend in a row, The Super Mario Bros. Movie dominates at the box office once again. Bringing in a whopping $58.2 million it now is the 7th highest third weekend at the domestic market. It now has also earned the title of being the #1 third weekend film for an animated movie. Internationally it saw a 38% drop with $70.7 million and a global total of $871.8 million, only the 28th biggest movie of all time. Its safe to say that The Super Mario Bros. Movie will enjoy the next two weeks at the top of the box office and it will eventually be dethroned by Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol.3. Crossing over the billion-dollar mark is well in the film’s sights and it should hit that milestone in the weeks to come.
Evil Dead Rise
Warner Bros. horror hit had an impressive debut bringing in $23.5 million for a second-place opening for the weekend. The film’s opening weekend box office was almost identical to two other recent releases – 2022’s The Black Phone ($23.6 million), and February’s Cocaine Bearm($23.2 million). Despite its solid opening, Evil Dead Rise fell 9% short of its predecessor in the franchise with 2013’s Evil Dead earning $25.7 million during its opening weekend. Internationally, Evil Dead Rise debuted with $16.8 million, bringing its global opening to $40.3 million.
