Weekend Box Office: THE ODYSSEY Victorious Again With $90 Million Second Frame

With no new major release in opening in theaters over the weekend, Christopher Nolan's "The Odyssey" had plenty of room to grow and no problem dominating the Top 10 with an impressively low sophomore drop. Two new wide or semi-wide releases did make it into the Top 10. The Broadway live-recording "Hadestown: The Musical", which has a five-day only theatrical run, scored an impressive weekend debut, while the action thriller "Motor City" starring Alan Ritchson failed to attract moviegoers.

Weekend Box Office: THE ODYSSEY Explodes With $123.5 Million Debut

As expected, Christopher Nolan's fantasy epic "The Odyssey" was a massive hit, breaking a series of records as it overwhelmingly dominated the weekend box office. It certainly helped that there were no new releases, since no studio dared go against Nolan, and last week's newly released Disney live-action remake "Moana" continues to sink even lower.

Weekend Box Office: MOANA Live-Action Remake Tanks With $43.1 Million Debut

Disney's latest live-action remake "Moana" stumbled in its opening weekend but still came out on top. The R-rated horror film "Evil Dead Burn" also opened over the weekend, but failed to impress. Meanwhile, two indie comedies expanded nationwide with mixed results: Olivia Wilde's indie comedy "The Invite" fared okay, but the comedy "Gail Daughtry and the Celebrity Sex Pass" starring Zoey Deutch failed to make the Top 10.

Weekend Box Office: MINIONS & MONSTERS Tops 4th Of July Weekend With Franchise-Low Debut

Illumination's animated film "Minions & Monsters" conquered the 4th of July weekend, but also severely underperformed. The release of a new family-friendly film clearly impacted "Toy Story 5", which took a steep dive, but still held on well enough to finish in second place. Meanwhile, Angel Studios' historical drama "Young Washington" opened in time for the holiday and scored a decent debut.
