Highest new movie this weekend
John Krasinski directs with Ryan Reynolds starring in the new movie IF~2024 which tops the US box office on its debut weekend of release with a gross of $33.7 Million.
Compared to the directors last movie A Quiet Place: Part II this is quite a bit lower as that movie took $48.3 Million on its debut weekend in May of 2021.
Last weekends top movie Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes falls to number 2 this weekend and has taken just over $100 Million in 2 weeks.
Also new on this weekends top 5 is The Strangers: Chapter 1 which lands at number 3 with $11.8 Million.
It was a tight contest this weekend for the top of the box office with IF~2024 taking over at the top of the UK box office by about £300,000.
The Ryan Reynolds starring movie took over at the top of the box office with a debut gross of £2.4 Million.
The last movie directed by John Krasinski A Quiet Place Part II made its debut at the top with £3.4 Million in June 2021.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes falls to number 2 this weekend but it put up a fight to keep the crown and only just lost out.
The movie has taken a very good £7.6 Million to date.
The Strangers: Chapter 1 also makes its debut on the UK box office top 5 at number 4 with £452,506.
The UK box office top 15 took a little more than last weekend which was a big low but the numbers a still no where near past movie summer seasons which is a worrying sign for the cinema industry.
