Box Office Report for the Week of January 2

As was expected, Marvel Studios’ Spider-Man: No Way Home – which stars Tom Holland, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Zendaya amongst many, many others – took the top spot at the box office yet again this weekend, earning a weekend total of $52.7 million, which sees the film take a 37% drop from last week.

New animation film Sing 2 earned a weekend total of $19.6 million from 3,892 screens in its sophomore frame, a mere 12% drop from its opening weekend, lifting its theatrical run in North America to $89.6 million. The title is now days away from overtaking Disney’s Encanto ($91.3M) as the highest-grossing animated film of the pandemic.

20th Century Studios’ The King’s Man moved up to third place in its sophomore frame with a $4.5 million take from 3,160 screens, a modest 24% drop from last weekend’s debut. The film has earned $19.5 million after two weeks in North America. Internationally, The King’s Man has already earned $28.3 million from 22 markets. Falling fast, however, was The Matrix Resurrections and West Side Story. Both have underwhelmed and neither managed to make much of an impact this weekend.
