After scoring $30M on Juneteenth, Disney/Pixar’s Inside Out 2 scored another $100M in its second week at the box office, a 35% dip per Deadline. That sophomore frame is the seventh-best second weekend ever, just behind Jurassic World ($106.5M) and The Avengers ($103M) and ahead of The Super Mario Bros. Movie ($92.3M) and Barbie ($93M). Globally, the animated sequel zipped past $724M in just 12 days of release.
Elsewhere, Focus Features’ The Bikeriders opened with a “respectable” $10M and finished third, which is still pretty good for a film of this nature.
Bad Boys Ride or Die continues to perform well, taking another $18.7M (-44%) in its third frame to raise its total to $146.9M. Globally, the Will Smith feature sits at $289.1M.
Vertical’s The Exorcist, starring Russell Crowe, opened in 2,240 locations and generated $2.4M, while Magnolia’s Thelma hauled in $2.2M from 1,290 theaters. Searchlight’s Kinds of Kindness, starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, generated a strong $70K per screen at five NYC and LA venues, earning $350K.
This week sees the release of the horror prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, starring Lupita Nyong’o, and the Kevin Costner western Horizon: An American Saga. Analysts project Day One to open with $40M+, while many believe Costner’s latest effort will draw just $12M.
