It’s another wild box office weekend, with dinosaurs, superheroes, and rescue pups all fighting for moviegoers’ attention. Here’s a rundown of who’s winning, who’s opening strong, and who’s quietly climbing toward the half-billion-dollar mark.

1. Spider-Man: Brand New Day Still Rules the Box Office Weekend
Marvel and Sony’s “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” topped the charts again, pulling in an estimated $19 million domestically on Friday alone. Now in its third weekend, the film is tracking toward roughly $67 million by Sunday — about a 53% drop from last week, a fairly normal decline for a threequel this deep into its run. That would push its North American total to approximately $783 million. The webslinger first teased new footage months ago at Marvel Comic-Con 2026, where fans got an early look at what was coming next from the studio.
2. The End of Oak Street Opens Ferociously in Second Place
Warner Bros.’ sci-fi thriller “The End of Oak Street” landed in second on opening day with $8.1 million from 3,446 theaters, and is projected to reach about $18.7 million by Sunday. That’s a modest start for a film that reportedly cost more than $80 million to make. Directed by David Robert Mitchell (“It Follows”) and starring Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, Christian Convery, and Jordan Alexa Davis, the film follows a suburban family whose neighborhood is suddenly transported to prehistoric times. According to Variety, the movie is holding an 84% score on Rotten Tomatoes and a “B” CinemaScore grade, so there’s a real chance strong word-of-mouth keeps it in theaters longer than the opening numbers suggest.
3. PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie Digs Up Third Place
Paramount’s animated newcomer “PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie” took third place, earning $7.35 million on Friday from 3,545 theaters. The studio projects the family adventure will dig up about $20 million for the full weekend. That would put it roughly in line with its predecessor, “The Mighty Movie,” which opened to $22 million in 2023 and went on to gross $205 million worldwide. It’s one of the more surprising performers of this box office weekend given its modest theater count.
4. Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey Keeps Holding Strong at No. 4
Christopher Nolan’s Greek epic “The Odyssey” is still going strong in its fifth weekend, adding $6.5 million domestically on Friday and tracking toward $23 million for the full weekend. That would bring its North American haul to roughly $504 million. The film made headlines earlier this year after a pirated copy went viral online, but the leak clearly did little to slow its theatrical momentum.
5. Katseye: Wild Hearts Documentary Rounds Out the Top Five
Rounding out the top five is “Katseye: Wild Hearts,” a behind-the-scenes documentary following the global girl group. The film earned an estimated $2.2 million on Friday from just 724 theaters and is expected to gross about $3.8 million by Sunday — a solid per-theater average for a music documentary with such a limited release. Even in a crowded box office weekend, that’s a strong showing for a limited-release music documentary.
What Happens Next at the Box Office
This box office weekend shows an industry leaning on a mix of proven franchises and mid-budget originals. If “The End of Oak Street” holds its momentum through strong word-of-mouth, expect Warner Bros. to lean into positive reviews for its second-weekend marketing push. Meanwhile, “Spider-Man: Brand New Day” is closing in on the $800 million mark domestically, and “The Odyssey” is proving that awards-season epics can still pack IMAX screens months after release. Next weekend’s box office numbers will show whether any of these titles can hold off fresh competition.
