Weekend Box-Office: BLACK PANTHER WAKANDA FOREVER Tops Fifth Consecutive Frame


Marvel's superhero flick "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" spends its fifth weekend at the box-office on top, probably for the last time before "Avatar: The Way of Water" steamrolls the competition next week. It was an otherwise slow weekend with no wide theatrical releases, ranking second as the lowest box-office weekend of the year with a total gross of $38.3 million.

Read more about the weekend box-office after the jump.






"Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" has become the first film to score five consecutive #1 weekends since the 2018 "Black Panther". However, the film is slowing down considerably, especially overseas, and it looks like it will become yet another Marvel movie to miss the $1 billion mark. "Wakanda Forever" raked in $11.1 million this week, dropping 36.7%, and its domestic cume has reached $409.8 million. Overseas, it has earned $358 million, which brings its worldwide tally to $767.8 million.

In second place, the R-rated Christmas action movie "Violent Night" is holding with $8.7 million (35% decline), which brings its domestic tally to $26.6 million. Overseas it grossed around $15 mnillion from 72 countries. The worldwide total now stands at $41.7 million against a $20 million production budget.

Disney's animated flop "Strange World" stabilized a little this week, finishing in third place with $3.6 million. The film dropped just 29%, but it's already a huge disaster with $30.4 million domestically and $23 million internationally. That's $53.4 million against a $180 million budget.

The thriller "The Menu" is holding in fourth place with $2.7 million, dropping just 22% from the previous frame. The film has grossed $29 million domestically, $28.7 milion overseas, adding up to a total of $57.7 million worldwide.

The Top 5 is rounded out by the war movie "Devotion" with $1.9 million (27% decline). With a production budget of $90 million, the film is a major flop for Columbia Pictures, grossing only $16.9 million in North America, and $500 from overseas markets.

In other news, "The Whale", A24's awards hopeful starring Brendan Fraser, opened in only six theaters over the weekend and earned a solid $360K.
