US box office QuickView

• Highest total gross - Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings ($218 Million)

US box office top 5 breakdown weekend 15th - 17th October 2021.

Halloween Kills

The long running movie series that started with the John Carpenter directed Halloween in 1979 has been a regular box office hit maker over the last 40+ years.

The latest sequel, which is part of a 'final' trilogy directed by David Gordon Green makes its debut at the top this weekend with a fantastic gross of $50.3 Million.

This marks the third movie in as many weeks to make its debut with a gross over $50 Millin since the start of the pandemic in March 2020, showing real signs that people are willing to go back to the cinema.

Whats just as impressive is that the movie which stars Jamie Lee Curtis is also available to stream without extra fee on Paramount+.

No Time To Die

The latest James Bond movie, and the last for Daniel Craig, falls to number 2 this weekend after making its debut at the top last week, with a gross of $24.2 Million, a large 57% drop over last week.

The movie isn't proving to be as big a hit in North America as it has in other parts of the world, and in the US after 10 days of release has grossed $99.5 Million, it will pass the $100 Million mark before next weekend.

The movie is to date the 9th top movie of 2021, but it has some very stiff competition in the coming months.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage

The superhero sequel movie falls to number 3 this weekend with $16.5 Million, a 48% drop over last week, which gives the movie a total US gross of $168 Million afer 3 weeks.

The movie is tracking very similar to the 2018 original Venom which ended up with $213 Million after 13 weeks.

This means the movie is the 4th top movie of 2021 and looking towards a $200 Million total, altohugh again with tough competition in the coming months that will take its audience away this could be a milestone too far.

The Addams Family 2

The animated sequel falls to 3 this weekend with $7.1 Million, a small 28% drop, giving the movie a total of $42 Million over 3 weeks of release.

The Last Duel

The new movie directed by Ridley Scott and starring Matt Damon and Adam Driver lands, rather disappointingly at number 5 this weekend with a debut gross of $4.8 Million.

The much delayed new Bond movie makes its debut at the top of the US box office this weekend as No Time To Die knocks off the Venom movie sequel after a week at the top.

The only other new movie on this weeks top 10 is Lamb which makes its debut at number 7 with just over $1 Million in weekend grosses.

US box office QuickView

• Number 1 - No Time To Die (1st Weekend)
• Highest debut - No Time To Die (@1)
• Longest run - Jungle Cruise (11 weeks)
• Highest total gross - Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings ($212 Million)

US box office top weekend breakdown 8th - 10th October 2021

No Time To Die

Bond movie number 25 makes its debut at the top of the US box office this weekend with a weekend gross of $56 Million.

This is lower than the last three Bond movies, SPECTRE, Skyfall and Quantum of Solace but it is higher than Daniel Craig's first Bond outing Casino Royale.

This is unsurprising as the movie has been delayed many times, but it has had good word of mouth and favourable reviews, but people are still nervous going back to the cinema, but this movie, and a few big future releases, could change that.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage

The Venom sequel movie falls to number 2 on its second weekend of release with $32 Million, a quite large 64% drop over last weekend, which was to be expected.

The movie has now make a total of $141.6 Million so far in the US and it is quite incredibly the 5th top grossing movie of 2021 so far having slipped in between Free Guy and A Quiet Place Part II.

The Addams Family 2

The animated sequel falls to number 2 this weekend with $10 Million taken over the weekend, a 42% drop over its debut last weekend.

this gives the movie a total US gross of $31.1 Million over its 2 weeks of release, the movie could see a boost in a couple of weeks as Halloween hits but then we will see it sink out of the box office chart.

Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings

The smash hit Marvel movie falls to number 4 this weekend with a weekend gross of $4.2 Million, a slim 31% drop condering its the movies 6th weekend.

THe movie has now taken an incredible $212.4 Million over its 6 week run and is the top grossing movie, so far, of 2021.

The Many Saints of Newark

The Sopranos prequel movie drops to number 5 this weekend with $1.45 Million, a large 69% drop, giving the movie a 2 weekend total gross of $7.4 Million.
