Backrooms dominates the weekend box office as Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu tumbles

Backrooms

Indie horror seems to be in demand as Backrooms crushed the weekend box office. Kane Parsons’ directorial debut came in first place with a reported $81.5 million domestically. The film also grossed $36.5 million internationally for a worldwide debut of $118 million. With Parsons’ success as well as other “Youtube to big screen” success stories this year, expect to see a shift as online popularity and success is transferring over to big screen success. With studios more risk adverse and wanting surefire hits, this is an easy pipeline to tap for short term gains.

Obsession, another horror film, held on to second place with $26.4 million to bring its domestic gross to $104.8 million. It about doubled its international gross adding about $22 million to that total over the week to bring it to $43.2 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $148 million.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu tumbled in its second week dropping 69.4% (not odd for a blockbuster like this) to gross $25 million and bring its domestic gross to $137.4 million. That’s a bigger drop than Solo: A Star Wars Story which saw a 65.2% decline. Internationally, the movie grossed about $46.2 million over the week to bring that to $109.2 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $246.6 million after two weeks.

Michael came in fourth place with $11.7 million to bring its domestic gross to $339.9 million. Over the week, it grossed $38.3 million internationally where the total is now $506.4 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $846.3 million.

The Breadwinner debuted in fifth place with $7.5 million domestically and no international return. While Nate Bargatze might be “hot” according to.. we’re not quite sure, the box office is saying otherwise.

Mobile Suit Gundam Hathaway: The Sorcery of Nymph Circe added about $50,000 domestically which is now $1.1 million and has grossed about $50,000 over the week internationally which is now $17.3 million for $18.4 million worldwide.

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu wins the Holiday Weekend Box Office

Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu

It should be no surprise, Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu took the weekend box office with an estimated $81.96 million. It is expected to gross $102 million for the holiday weekend. Internationally, the movie grossed $63 million for a worldwide gross of $165 million. While that might not sound great, the film had a rather tight budget of around $165 million. Usually, films need to double their budget to be profitable, so if the film can get over $330 million it should be doing well. If it crossed $400 million or more, it’s a good return and this doesn’t count all of the tie-in money flowing in for the film. That gross is a bit under Solo: A Star Wars Story‘s $84.4 million opening in 2018, also the holiday weekend. It went on to gross $392.9 million worldwide.

Obsession moved up to second place from third with $22.4 million, a 30.3% increase. It has grossed domestically $58.6 million so far. It grossed around $16.2 million internationally over the week and now that stands at $21.2 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $79.8 million.

Michael dipped to third place with $20 million. Domestically, it has grossed $319.9 million after about a month. Internationally, the movie added $47 million over the week and that’s now $468.1 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed a little over $788 million, so now it’s wait and see if the film can slide across the billion mark.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 came in fourth place after being in second last week. It added $12.6 million to its domestic gross which is now $200 million. Over the week, it grossed $37.7 million at the international box office which is now $408 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $608 million.

Rounding out the top five was The Sheep Detective which added just under $9 million to its domestic total which is now $46.9 million. Over the week, it grossed $9.7 million to bring that total to $38.7 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $85.6 million.

Michael

With brutal reviews from critics and a lot of criticism, Michael was first at the weekend box office with an impressive $97 million domestically and $120.4 million internationally, for a worldwide opening of $217.4 million.

The film had the best opening weekend of all time for a biopic and the biggest opening of 2026 for an original film so far.

The film received very positive reviews from the public showing they don’t care about the film’s flaws or there’s just still an impressive amount of Michael Jackson fans. Let’s face it, fans of the pop star would be the first to head to theaters causing an initial boost in positive reviews from the general public, so it’ll be interesting to see if that stays or if more see it that aren’t fans and that positive score drops. There’s also a chance this film will be frontloaded with fans and see a pretty hard drop. It’s hard to say how this one will play out.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie delivers a Powered Up Opening

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

It should be a surprise that The Super Mario Galaxy Movie was top of the weekend box office. The film delivered a massive $130.9 million domestically over the weekend for an initial week (it opened Wednesday) of around $190.1 million. Internationally, the movie grossed $182.4 million for a worldwide opening week of $372.5 million.

While impressive, it falls a little short of 2023’s The Super Mario Bros. Movie which debuted with $146.4 million domestically and went on to gross $574.9 million at the domestic box office and $1.361 billion worldwide.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie might have issues matching the first film’s totals though. It has 41% critic rating by 89% from audiences according to RottenTomatoes. The first film had 59% and 95%. With audiences and critics slightly down on the sequel, I wouldn’t expect it to have similar legs but with limited competition for at least a month, the film might succeed due to that alone.

Project Hail Mary slipped to second place in its third week adding $30.7 million to its domestic total which is now $217.2 million. Over the week, it grossed $67.1 million internationally to bring that to $203.6 million. Worldwide, the film has grossed $420.8 million.
