UK box office QuickView

• Longest run - Sing 2 (11 weeks)
• Highest total gross - The Batman (£39.2 Million)

UK box office top 5 weekend breakdown 8th - 10th April 2022

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

This third in the series of movies that serve as a prequel to the Harry Potter movies, starring Eddie Redmayne as the Beasts finder Newt Scamander the series has turned into an origins movie for Albus Dumbledore played in this series by Jude law.

The movie opens with a gross of £5.8 Million which is well below the last movie in the series Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald with an opening of £12 Million and the first movie in the series Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them which took £15 Million on its opening.

This series of movies has not touched the heights of the Harry Potter series which started 20 years ago with Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone which took £15 Million on its debut and ended with Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 which took £23 Million.

The movie is the 10th top movie of the year so far, and will end up most likely in the top 5, but it is debatable if Warner Bros. will see this as good enough to continue the movies in what should have been a 5 movie series.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The blue speedy hedgehog which made its debut at number 1 last weekend falls to number 2 on its second weekend of release with £2.9 Million, a 42% drop over last weekend.

this gives the movie a total UK gross of £10.6 Million after 2 weeks of release, this is more than double the take of the first movie at the same point of release.

The movie is the 6th top film of 2022 and at this rate bound to do even better.

The Bad Guys

Proving to be a smash hit is the latest movie from the DreamWorks animated stable which this weekend takes £1.1 Million, a 51% drop over last weekend, taking the movies total UK gross to £4.8 Million.

Morbius

Sony's Spiderverse movie drops to number 4 this weekend with £740,336, a massive 77% drop over last weekend.

This gives the movie a total gross of £5 Million after 2 weekends of release, it will most likely drop out of the top 5 next weekend and end its run with about £7 Million.

Its not been good for the super villain movie especially after the success last year of Venom: Let There Be Carnage and Spider-Man: No Way Home.

The Batman

Dropping to number 5 this weekend The Caped Crusader takes £623,866 on its 6th weekend of release, a 48% drop over last weekend, giving the movie a total of £39 Million.

The movie is the top movie of 2022 so far, an honor it will loose in the coming weeks, but the film has been a success for Warner Bros. in fact it has been more successful tha Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice from 2016 which took £35 Million over its total 6 week run.

It has not been as successful though as Joker~2019 from 2019 which had taken £54 Million 6 weeks into its run on its way to £58 Million total.

Released in the UK this weekend, Friday, 8th April 2022, there are 3 new releases looking to take your attention and where available could hit your local cinema and try and replace Sonic the Hedgehog 2 from the top of the UK box office.
