Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé’s songs knocks off Songbirds & Snakes to take the weekend box office

Posted on by
Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé

Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé was the top film at the weekend box office debuting with $21 million domestically. While a decent opening, it’s far short of Taylor Swift’s $92.8 million for her Eras Tour film debut. While many probably saw gold in that stat, Beyonce’s more down to earth debut may prevent a rush of the genre. Internationally, Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé has grossed $6.4 million for a worldwide debut of $27.4 million.

In second place was The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes which grossed an estimated $14.5 million to bring its domestic total to $121.2 million. Internationally, the film has grossed a similar number $122.7 million for a worldwide total of $243.9 million.

In third place, Godzilla Minus One debuted with an estimated $11 million. Internationally, the film has grossed $23.1 million for a worldwide debut of $34.2 million.

Trolls Band Together held on to fourth place with an estimated $7.6 million to bring its domestic total to $74.8 million. Over the week, it grossed $4.4 million internationally to bring that total to $85.8 million for a worldwide total of $160.6 million.

Rounding out the top five was Wish, which Disney might have wished went straight to streaming. The film dropped 62.4% from its debut to gross just $7.4 million. The film has managed just under $42 million in two weeks. International totals aren’t much better with $22.3 million grossed over the week to bring that to $39.6 million. Worldwide, the film has grossed just $81.6 million.

In comic film news…

The Marvels continues to stumble being knocked out of the top ten after just four weeks. Coming in eleventh, the film added an estimated $2.5 million to its domestic total to bring that to $80.7 million. Things are going a bit better internationally where the film added $4.3 million over the week to bring it to $116.3 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed a little over $197 million.

The week’s overall box office success…

Numbers have 51 films earning $97,199,355 from 38,462 theaters. That’s a dip from the previous weekend’s $116,002,064 from 33,729 theaters and 53 films. The average earning was $2,527.15 which is about a third less than the previous weekend’s $3,439.24.

Domestically, the film has grossed $31.7 million since its Wednesday debut with another $17.3 million internationally for a worldwide debut of $49 million.

While it shouldn’t be a surprise that The Marvels opened in first place at the weekend box office, the film was the lowest opening for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The film debuted with an estimated $47 million domestically, short of Ant-Man‘s 2015 opening of $57.2 million. Internationally, the film did about the same with $41.5 million for a worldwide debut of $88.5 million. It continues a string of misses for Disney, while even taken into account the shift in viewing post-pandemic, is struggling at the box office overall. It also will add fuel to the recent backlash and negativity towards Marvel as a whole that the film studio and its comic publishing counterpart need to course correct and find a new and better path.

In second place was Five Nights at Freddy’s after two weeks in first place. The movie added $9 million to its domestic total bringing that to $127.2 million. Internationally, the movie added $21.3 million over the week to bring that total to $124.7 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $251.9 million after three weeks.

Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour came in third place with a reported $5.9 million to bring its domestic gross to $172.5 million. Internationally, the movie grossed $3.2 million over the week to lift that total to $68.4 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $240.9 million.

Priscilla held steady in fourth place with an estimated $4.8 million to bring its domestic total to $12.7 million. There are no international grosses.

Killers of the Flower Moon rounded out the top five with an estimated $4.7 million to bring its domestic total to $59.9 million. Internationally, the film grossed $10.4 million over the week to bring that tot $77.2 million. Worldwide, the movie has grossed $137.1 million.
