“Spider-Man: No Way Home” once more topped the US box office with $52.7 million in revenues over the weekend.
And it exceeded 600 million dollars locally, three weeks following the start of its offer, according to the specialized company, Exhibitor Relations.
These strong results for the second part of the movie “Sony” superhero, whose revenues exceeded the threshold of one billion dollars globally last weekend, gave a strong impetus to cinema, which is struggling to recover from the Covid-19 pandemic.
With families returning to movie theaters, “Sing 2”, the second part of the musical animation for Universal, brought in $19.6 million, taking the second place once more between Friday and Sunday.
The massive voice cast includes Matthew McConaughey, Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson and U2 lead singer Bono.
This week, “The Kingsman,” the third installment in the spy thriller series starring Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Rhys Evans and Matthew Goode, dropped to $4.5 million in revenue.
In fourth place, the movie “American Underdog”, produced by “Lionsgate”, brought in $4.1 million. It stars Zachary Levi as Kurt Warner, who has gone from filling grocery shelves to being the best player in the NFL.
And the science fiction movie “The Matrix: Resolutions”, produced by “Warner Brothers”, came in fifth, with revenues of $3.8 million. Variety described the film’s achievement as “disastrous”, given its $190 million production budget.
