'Death on the Nile' drowns competition with $12.8 million debut.
Just 24 hours after Saturday’s weekend box office estimates, the top five has been significantly restructured. Although Kenneth Branagh’s Death on the Nile is still the number one movie this weekend, Universal’s rom-com Marry Me surrendered the number two spot to holdover hit Jackass Forever. Meanwhile, the Liam Neeson action vehicle Blacklight, which on Saturday was reported to have debuted at the number six spot, snuck into the top five after all, edging out the animated sequel Sing 2.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Death on the Nile continues the now-concerning trend of Disney’s inherited Fox titles underperforming at the box office. The Mouse House has previously released leftover Fox films such as The New Mutants, West Side Story, The King’s Man and The Last Duel, to disappointing results. By comparison, Murder on the Orient Express exceeded expectations with a $28.6 million debut, and legged it to over $100 million domestically.
The number four spot was claimed by Sony’s Spider-Man: No Way Home, which has been ruling over the box office for two months. The film made $7.1 million this weekend, taking its domestic total to a jaw-dropping $759 million. It’s around $1 million shy of eclipsing Avatar’s $760.5 million haul to become the third-highest grossing film of all time.
Next weekend will see the release of Sony’s long-in-the-making video game adaptation Uncharted, and Channing Tatum and his longtime creative partner Reid Carolin’s directorial debut, Dog.
