Weekend Box Office Results: ‘Demon Slayer’ Edges Out ‘Him’ in $17M+ Win
All titles look to be around $77.8M, which is down 48% from last weekend, yet only -4% off from a year ago when Beetlejuice Beetlejuice was still the thing in its third weekend with $25.9M and Paramount had the animated Transformers One which bowed to $24.6M.
The slow weekend belongs to the second frame of Sony/Crunchyroll’s Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle with .3M. Universal’s Him slowed down in its run to .5M for second place. Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle is the highest grossing anime of all-time at the domestic B.O. now with a 4.7M ten-day total.
One weekend, Sony is a rich man in Demon Slayer, and a poor man with A Big Bold Beautiful Journey which is crashing with $3.5M opening.
Demon Slayer spiked 62% in its second Saturday to $7.3M over its second Friday of $4.5M. Him went down on Saturday by -33% to $4.3M from a first Friday/previews of $6.4M.
