Those ticket sales were enough to top domestic box office charts over two newcomers, Sony’s prehistoric sci-fi thriller “65” and the Focus Features heartwarming comedy “Champions,” as well as last weekend’s victor “Creed III.”
Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, “Scream VI” follows survivors of Ghostface’s murders as they leave Woodsboro behind for a fresh start in New York City. Courteney Cox, Melissa Barrera, Jenna Ortega, and Hayden Panettiere return for the film, which is the first installment without Campbell’s Sidney Prescott. The actor
“65” landed at No. 3 with $12 million from 3,405 cinemas, a start that’s above initial single-digit expectations, but still rocky for a $45 million-budgeted film. Adam Driver stars in “65” as a pilot who crash-lands on a mysterious planet that happens to be Earth… 65 million years ago. “Champions” debuted in sixth place with a mediocre $5 million from 3,030 locations. Directed by Bobby Farrelly, “Champions” follows Woody Harrelson as a temperamental minor-league basketball coach who ends up mentoring a team of players with intellectual disabilities to fulfill a community service requirement. Lucky for the studio, ticket buyers seemed to like the film more than critics did .
