It was a very slow weekend with no major new releases at the UK box office, and for the first time since the end of 2020 as cinemas started to close due to the COVID pandemic where no film in over the weekend took over a Million pound.

The top movie of the weekend, and the highest debut, is the event cinema Andre Rieues 2022 Maastricht Concert: Happy Days Are Here Again from the famous violinist which easily beast the new Idris Elba movie Beast~20221 which makes its debut at 2.

Further down the box office there is a new entry for The Invitation which has been on limited release and makes its debut at 12 with £261,791 and Official Competition which also on limited release is new at 15 with £101,916.

UK weekend box office top 5 breakdown 26th - 28th August 2022

Highest new movie of the weekend

Violinist Andre Rieu brings his summer concert from Maastricht to cinemas once again which gives the popular musician the highest debut and number one movie of the weekend.

In what is a very quiet period for cinemas and new releases the event cinema concert takes £798,706 on its debut.

This is of course not the first time Rieu has hit the box office but it is the first time one of his cinema events has hit the top of the box office.

The last time a concert hit the top was during the pandemic in the shape of Michael Ball & Alfie Boe: Back Together which took £175,778 in October 2020.

This has done better that last years summer concert which took, Andre Rieus 2021 Summer Concert: Together Again, which took £420,056 exactly a year ago.

The new movie starring Idris Elba makes its debut at number 2 this weekend with a debut gross of £600,259.

This is perhaps a little on the disappointing side for a film starring such a big name, the last film Elba was in was Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and he has a cameo in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness both of which are among the biggest movies of the year.

Elba stars in another movie released this weekend, Three Thousand Years of Longing, which has not gone down that well in the US so it will be interesting to see next week how well it does in the UK.

The animated feature from the DC Universe of movies stays at number 3 this weekend with a gross of £598,985, a 26% drop.

The movie has now taken £12.2 Million in the UK after 5 weekends of release.

The Brad Pitt starring movie falls to number 4 this weekend with £593,044, a 29% drop which gives the movie a total gros sof £8.1 Million after 4 weeks of release.

Falling from the top to this weeks number 5 the Jordan Peele horror movie takes £576,643, a 50% over its gross last weekend.

The movie has now taken £5.9 Million in the UK after 3 weeks of release.

The top 15 movies in the UK this week failed to take over £100,000 as much of the UK is experiencing new lockdowns and many cinemas will have been closed on Friday, Christmas Day.

Wonder Woman 1984 retained its position at the top of the box office with ease and is responsible for 77% of this weeks box office total takings and as there were no new releases we have a fairly static top 5.

Worthy of note this week is that the number 15 movie, Michael Ball & Alfie Boe: Back Together, only took £548 and the movie with the lowest weekly from was Peter Duncan Presents Jack And The Beanstalk which dropped 60% from last weekend.
