The nine-figure gross makes it the third biggest second weekend in domestic box office history, coming in just behind “Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens” ($149.2 million in 2015) and “Avengers: Endgame” ($147.3 million in 2019), according to data from Box Office Mojo, and is only one of eight films to pull in over $100 million a second weekend in theaters.
Meanwhile, Christopher Nolan’s “The Odyssey” continued its own blockbuster run in theaters with another $31.5 million from North American theaters—officially propelling it over the $1 billion mark and turning it into the British filmmaker’s highest-grossing movie ever, surpassing 2012’s “The Dark Knight Rises” total gross of $1.083 billion.
Outside the two blockbusters, the rest of the weekend was somewhat muted for films at the domestic box office. “One Night Only,” a new romantic comedy starring Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner, opened at 3,012 theaters and grossed an estimated $5.7 million. It’s a weak opening for a film with a reported $25 million budget, according to Variety. However, director Will Gluck’s previous rom-com “Anyone But You” had a similar opening—grossing only $6 million in 2023 before the Sydney Sweeney/Glen Powell flick became a surprise hit weeks later, ultimately grossing $88.3 million at the domestic box office and $220.3 million worldwide. Fourth place this weekend went to “Super Troopers 3,” grossing only $4 million for its own opening weekend. Fifth place went to “Toy Story 5,” holding on over its eighth weekend in theaters with $3.9 million, extending its own record-breaking run . “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” surpassed “Toy Story 5” to become the year’s highest grossing film at American theaters last week.
