10. Materialists (2025)

‘Materialists’, a romantic drama from A24, pulled in $720,498 in its fifth week across 589 theaters. Directed by Celine Song, it stars Pedro Pascal, Dakota Johnson, and Chris Evans, weaving a tale of love and choices in New York’s bustling streets.

Though down 46.5%, its $35.17 million domestic total shows it’s still drawing fans of character-driven stories. Its modest budget and strong cast keep it a quiet success in a loud summer season.

9. M3GAN 2.0 (2025)

Universal’s horror sequel ‘M3GAN 2.0’ earned $1.35 million in 1,658 theaters, dropping 65.9% in its third week. The return of the creepy AI doll, directed by Gerard Johnstone, hasn’t matched the 2023 original’s $180 million global haul.

With $22.37 million domestically, it’s struggling to keep pace with bigger blockbusters. Horror fans may enjoy the chills, but the sequel’s momentum is fading fast.

8. Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning (2025)

‘Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning’ grossed $1.42 million in 1,132 theaters during its eighth week. Tom Cruise’s last ride as Ethan Hunt, packed with daring stunts, keeps Paramount’s action saga alive.

Down 47.9%, it’s closing in on $194 million domestically and over $580 million worldwide. Its enduring draw proves the franchise’s action-packed legacy still packs a punch.

7. Lilo & Stitch (2025)

Disney’s live-action ‘Lilo & Stitch’ brought in $2.7 million across 2,075 theaters, down 31.6% in week eight. This remake of the 2002 animated gem follows a girl and her alien pal, tugging at heartstrings.

With $414.56 million domestically and nearly $1 billion globally, it’s a family favorite. Its emotional pull and vibrant visuals keep it thriving in theaters.

6. 28 Years Later (2025)

Its $65.74 million domestic and $138 million global totals show horror fans are hooked. With a lean $60 million budget, it’s a solid win for intense storytelling.

5. Elio (2025)

Pixar’s ‘Elio’ made $3.9 million in 2,730 theaters, down 32.6% in week four. This sci-fi adventure about a boy meeting aliens dazzles visually but struggles with its $150 million price tag.

At $63.67 million domestically and $117 million globally, it’s underperforming for Pixar. Its heartfelt story keeps some fans coming, but it’s battling tough competition.

4. How to Train Your Dragon (2025)

Universal’s ‘How to Train Your Dragon’ flew to $7.8 million in 3,285 theaters, down 30.7% in its fifth week. This live-action take on the 2010 animated hit brings Hiccup and Toothless to life.

With $239.81 million domestically and $560 million worldwide, it’s a family crowd-pleaser. Its steady run shows the Viking-dragon bond still captivates audiences.

3. F1 (2025)

With $232.11 million domestically and $529 million globally, it’s a major player. The dino thrills continue to draw families, even with a softer second week.

1. Superman (2025)

Warner Bros.’ ‘Superman’ soared to a $122 million opening in 4,135 theaters, averaging $29,504 per screen. James Gunn’s reboot, starring David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, redefines the iconic hero.

Its $217 million global debut marks it as 2025’s top superhero launch. Strong U.S. crowds love the fresh vision, though international numbers may grow more slowly.
