Smile shocked the WeekendBoxOffice with an amazingly small drop, and keeping the number one spot.
\nSmile shocked us all this weekend, posting the best hold for an R-rated horror film at the box office since Get Out, on its way to winning its second straight weekend. It added $17.6 million, good enough for a drop of only -22%. It is an incredible result, as most horror films have significant drops in their second week. Smile also is a rare film that saw its grosses go up throughout the weekend, posting better tallies on Saturday than on Friday.
Russell film. With only $6.5 million, word of mouth played a part here, as did the reviews. Not even a star-studded cast could save that one, but think about this: how much did the stars go out of their way to promote Russell's film? Did Taylor Swift even mention it on her socials? Hmm…\nFourth place went to The Woman King with $5.3 million, sending it over the $50 million mark, and the top five was rounded out by Don't Worry Darling with $3.4 million.
