The Marksman starring Liam Neeson tops box officeWith no new releases this past weekend, the action thriller The Marksman, starring Liam Neeson, repeated as the top film at the box office. The Open Road/Briarcliff production held steady with just a 37 percent drop from last weekend for a haul of $2 million. The film’s 10-day total now stands at $6.1 million.

After finishing a close third last weekend, Universal Pictures and DreamWorks Animation’s The Croods: A New Age rose up to take second place. With no new family offerings to challenge the animated sequel, it held on strong with just a minuscule 10 percent drop for a weekend haul of $1.8 million. The film’s 61-day total now stands at just over $41.8 million.

Dropping to third place was Warner Bros.’ Wonder Woman 1984. The comic book film sequel, starring Gal Gadot and Chris Pine, saw a slight 30 percent drop from the previous weekend for a $1.6 million gross this past weekend. The film’s 31-day total now stands at just over $37.7 million. With the film leaving HBO Max after Sunday, its box office figures may hold steady in the coming weeks.

The live-action adaptation of the video game series Monster Hunter starring Milla Jovovich rose one spot to fourth place, earning another $820,000. Its 38-day domestic total now stands at $10.2 million.

Rounding out the top five was Universal Pictures’ News of the World. The Tom Hanks action drama fell one spot from last weekend, earning an estimated $810,000, which brings its 31-day gross to $9.7 million. ~Paolo Maquiraya
