Spider-Man Swings to Fourth Weekend Win as Insidious Sequel Lands Second
Sony's superhero sequel 'Spider-Man: Brand New Day' is set to dominate the box office for a fourth straight weekend, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The film earned $9.8 million on Friday and is projected for a $36.5 million haul, which will push its domestic total past $852 million. That sum will officially move it ahead of 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' on the all-time domestic charts.
Despite a strong Friday showing, the new horror film 'Insidious: Out of the Further' will have to settle for second place. Variety reports the sixth franchise entry grabbed the top spot on Friday with $10.6 million, but Sony projects a softer $23.7 million opening weekend. The film, starring Amelia Eve and Lin Shaye, earned a C+ CinemaScore from audiences.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, the action flick 'Mutiny,' led by Jason Statham, opened to a modest $2.8 million on Friday and is aiming for a $7.4 million weekend. JoBlo notes the film's performance was likely hurt by a complete leak on Amazon Prime earlier in the week, leading to widespread piracy.
In other holdover news, Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey' is looking at about $18.5 million in its sixth weekend, per THR. Meanwhile, 'The End of Oak Street' and 'PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie' are in a tight race for fourth, each targeting around $8 million in their second frames.
