UK box office top 5 breakdown weekend 12th - 14th November 2021
Staying at the top of the UK box office for a second weekend the Marvel Studios movie takes £2.9 Million, a reasonable 47% drop over last weekend.
This drop is better than Marvels other 2021 movie Black Widow which dropped a massive 74% on its second weekend, but it was on Disney+ as well, but worse than Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings which only dropped 38%, but there was pent up cinema demand at the time.
The movie has taken £10.5 Million over its 2 weeks of release which is actually comparable to the other 2021 Marvel movies, but with the hype for Spider-Man: No Way Home going beyond fever pitch that movies mid December release could effect the final few weeks box office for this Chloe Zhao directed movie.
Still for a movie which has fairly unfavourable review it will end up with a £20 Million+ total UK gross which is not bad for a new IP.
Daniel Craigs final Bond outing stays put at number 2 this weekend with a gross of £1.5 Million, a very slim 21% on its 7th weekend of release, which could be down to people finally deciding its safe to go back to cinemas and not wanting to miss the big screen experience.
The movie has taken a massive £92.7 Million in the UK and it will end up as the top movie of 2021, I don't think even Spider-Man: No Way Home can beat this, and with the movie coming out so late in the year much of its take will be in 2022.
The movie is still the 5th top movie of all time in the UK, but it should be able to take Avatar by next weekend and settle under Spectre and Skyfall on the top 5 UK movies of all time, it will most likely struggle to get over £100 Million in the UK though.
Remaining at number 3 this weekend is director Denis Villeneuve take on the classic schi-fi noval which takes £1.7 Million over the weekend, again a very slim drop of only 24%.
This gives the movie a total UK gross of £18.9 Million and the 4th top movie of 2021 as it prepares to overtake Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway at number 3.
The movie is now the top grossing movie in the UK for the celebrated director having just overtaken the UK gross of 2017's Blade Runner 2049.
The bio-pic of Princess Diana goes on wider release and climbs to number 4 on the box office with £698,065, a 29% increase over last weekend where it debuted at number 6.
The movie starring Kristen Stewart as the late Princess has taken £1.5 Million in the UK after 2 weeks.
Staying put at number 5 this weekend is the animated sequel which takes £574,218 on its 4th weekend, a very small 5% drop, giving the movie a total in the UK of £6.4 Million.
Disney's Frozen II easily hangs onto the top of the global box office with little competition as Frozen Fever takes hold of the world while Knives Out makes its global debut at number 2.
Dieney's sequel to its 2013 smash movie continues to bring in the audiences with a second weekend global gross os $249 Million from 46 countries.
This brings the films total global gross to $738.5 Million on its way to $1 billion which it will easily reach.
The original movie took over a Billion at the global box office but the sequel will manage it far quicker and will most likely out gross it.
The last film Rian Johnson directed was Star Wars: The Last Jedi, that film was hit with a lot of controversy and got a very mixed reception from critics and Star Wars Fans alike.
This is a new IP and has been hit with some of the best reviews of the year and hence takes $55.3 Million from 54 countries on its global debit.
As the film hit US cinemas early thanks to the Thanksgiving holiday the film has taken $70 Million to date.
The racing drama starring Matt Damon and Christian Bale falls to number 3 this week with $23.4 Million from 49 countries for a $143.3 Million total.
A new film from Chinese director Fei Li lands on the global box office at number 4 with a $18.9 Million debut gross from 3 countries.
The Tom Hanks starring movie falls to number 5 this week with $11.8 Million, still from a single country, to give it a $34.3 Million total after 2 weeks of release.

It was a relatively close race at the UK box office this week, and one with low figures, but in the end Sausage Party remained at the top for a second week.
The Seth Rogan written film took £1.2 million on its second weekend of release which brings its total gross in the UK to £5.3 million.
Highest new film of the week is the remake of Ben-Hur which lands at number 2 this week with a debut gross on £1.05 million.
It hard to judge how this compares to the 1959 classic as attendance figures are hard to come by but it is considered a classic and it would have grossed nearly £100 million in todays money.
Also new this week is the US smash hit Don't Breathe at number 4 and Kubo and The Two Strings at number 5, Hell or High Water at number 7.
The BFG is the longest stay on the box office this week having been around for 8 weeks while Finding Dory is the highest total grossing movie with £40.8 million.

No surprise to see Star Wars: The Force Awakens remain at the top of the video sales chart this week.
Destined to be one of the top selling films of the year, the home video release of the top film ever in the UK is still selling is large quantities.
Highest new film of the week is the Tina Fey and Amy Poehler co starring film Sisters.
Sisters was released at the UK box office the same weekend as The Force Awakens, and did quite well considering with an opening weekend of £1.2 million.
The film did only hang around for 4 weeks in total and during that time took a small £2.6 million.
Despite the good reviews the film did do that well, but it was in a time when the world was gripped in Star Wars fever and nothing else really mattered.
