HOLDOVERS: NOMADLAND (Searchlight/Disney, also on Hulu) earned $500K at 1175 theatres after 2 weeks in limited release for which the studio didn’t provide numbers. That’s, a weekend per-theatre average a bit over $400. Even by the standards of split theatrical/streaming Oscar contending releases like Judas and the Black Messiah (which averaged about $1100 at 1888 theatres in its opening weekend), that’s a low result.
HOLDOVERS: THE CROODS: A NEW AGE (DreamWorks Animation/Universal, also on VOD) retained its crown, for whatever that’s worth these days, down 18% to $1.7M in its 13th weekend, and on track to depose Tenet‘s $57.9M as the highest-grossing pandemic release in the US. It also has $104M overseas.
THE LITTLE THINGS (Warners, also on HBO Max) dropped 39% to $1.2M in its 4th weekend, and should pass $15M in the US. It’s brought in $8.8M overseas after a $1.9M weekend.
JUDAS AND THE BLACK MESSIAH (Warners, also on HBO Max) fell a heavy 55% from last week’s opening to $900K, and may not see $10M in the US. It has yet to open overseas.
WW84 (Warners) lost 27% to $800K in its 9th weekend, and should reach $45M in the US. Overseas, it’s at $117.5M.
THE MARKSMAN (Open Road) dipped 36% to $775K in its 6th weekend, on its way to $15M in the US, and with $3.7M overseas.
MONSTER HUNTER (Screen Gems/Sony) continued its long run with a 25% drop to $500K in Weekend 10, on track for $15M in the US. it has $12.4M overseas.
LAND (Focus/Universal) lost 44% from last week’s opening to $500K, and may need a stretch to find $5M in the US. It hasn’t yet opened overseas.
NEXT WEEKEND: The latest theatrical/streaming release will be TOM & JERRY (Warners, also on HBO Max). In addition, Oscar hopeful THE FATHER (Sony Classics) is finally set to have a limited theatrical release, more than a year after its Sundance 2020 premiere.
