\n\tDog days of summer? This year\u2019s August at the box office didn\u2019t get the memo.<\/p>\n

\n\tThis popcorn season is ending with a bang rather than the usual whimper as \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day\u201d and \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d continue to pack in crowds. Meanwhile two new movies, Warner Bros. prehistoric sci-fi mystery \u201cThe End of Oak Street\u201d with Anne Hathaway and Ewan McGregor and Paramount\u2019s animated sequel \u201cPAW Patrol: The Dino Movie,\u201d each debuted above $20 million.<\/p>\n

\n\tDespite those newcomers, \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day\u201d remained the No. 1 in North America with $70 million in its third weekend of release. Sony and Marvel\u2019s comic book epic, starring Tom Holland as Peter Parker, has been a behemoth with $785 million domestically and $2.02 billion globally to date. It\u2019s the second-fastest film to join the $2 billion club after 2019\u2019s \u201cAvengers: Endgame,\u201d which accomplished the rare feat in 11 days.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe Odyssey\u201d stayed in second place with $23.2 million in its fifth weekend of release. Universal\u2019s big-budget Greek epic has generated a staggering $504.6 million in North America and $1.29 billion worldwide to date. That\u2019s after debuting this weekend in China to a solid $36.6 million. It\u2019s the second-highest-grossing movie of the year after \u201cSpider-Man\u201d as well as director Christopher Nolan\u2019s biggest of all time \u2014 an especially impressive feat for a drama that\u2019s nearly three hours long and adapted from a poem that\u2019s thousands of years old.<\/p>\n

\n\tHollywood is celebrating because this summer box office is already the biggest since \u201cthe before times,\u201d with revenues surpassing $4 billion for only the second time since COVID. Domestic ticket sales stand at $4.24 billion from May 1 through Aug. 16, running 23% ahead of the same point in 2025 and nearly 6% ahead of 2019. There\u2019s a chance that popcorn season even eclipses the all-time summer record set by 2013 with $4.755 billion (not adjusted for inflation), according to Rentrak.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis August feels particularly notable with \u2018The Odyssey\u2019 and \u2018Spider-Man: Brand New Day\u2019 providing blockbuster momentum,\u201d says Rentrak\u2019s head of marketplace trends Paul Dergarabedian. \u201cThe final weeks of summer could provide a historic home stretch to what has already been a remarkable summer movie season.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThe End of Oak Street\u201d launched in third place to a middling $21 million from 3,446 venues. The PG-13 movie also collected $26 million overseas for a global tally of $46 million. It\u2019s a tepid start for the $80 million-budgeted movie, so the studio will rely on positive word-of-mouth to help with staying power. However critics seemed to like \u201cOak Street\u201d more than audiences; the film holds a \u201cB\u201d grade on CinemaScore and 84% on Rotten Tomatoes. David Robert Mitchell wrote and directed the PG-13 survival thriller, which follows a mysterious cosmic event that transports a suburban family to prehistoric times.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis is late summer escapist entertainment, but right now audiences are still escaping to\u00a0\u2018Spider-Man,’\u201d says David A. Gross, who publishes the box office newsletter FranchiseRe. <\/p>\n

\n\tUnless \u201cOak Street\u201d rebounds, it\u2019ll be the latest underperforming tentpole for Warner Bros. following June\u2019s \u201cSupergirl\u201d and this spring\u2019s \u201cThe Bride.\u201d It puts pressure on the studio\u2019s Tom Cruise-led comedy \u201cDigger,\u201d which opens in October and carries a substantial $130 million price tag. <\/p>\n

\n\tFourth place went to \u201cPAW Patrol: The Dino Movie\u201d with $20.5 million from 3,500 North American theaters. Those ticket sales are even with the studio\u2019s prior \u201cPAW Patrol\u201d sequel, 2023\u2019s \u201cThe Mighty Movie,\u201d which ignited to $22 million and eventually climbed to $205 million globally against a $30 million budget. \u201cThe Dino Movie\u201d carries a slightly larger $40 million price tag, which was split between Paramount and Spin Master. Overseas, the newest \u201cPAW Patrol\u201d has earned $48.5 million for a global tally of $69 million.<\/p>\n

\n\tRounding out the top five was \u201cKatseye: Wild Hearts,\u201d a documentary about the girl group, with $3.8 million from just 724 screens. <\/p>\n

\n\tFittingly, \u201cSix: The Musical Live\u201d debuted in sixth place with $3 million from 1,462 locations. It\u2019s a filmed version of the popular Broadway show, and initial returns are similar to other recent live-captures like \u201cWaitress: The Musical ($2.6 million) and \u201cMerrily We Roll Along\u201d ($1.3 million). Focus Features is releasing \u201cSix,\u201d which lands a few weekends after Bleecker Street\u2019s \u201cHadestown\u201d established an opening weekend record among Broadway live-captures with $10.2 million. \u201cHadestown\u201d has been a surprise hit with $20 million domestically since late July.<\/p>\n

\n\tElsewhere on box office charts, the Angel Studios historical drama \u201cThe Brink of War\u201d opened in seventh place with $2.6 million from 2,083 theaters. Set during the\u00a0Reykjav\u00edk Summit\u00a0of 1986, the movie stars Jeff Daniels as Ronald Reagan as he races against time to salvage a deal with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev (Jared Harris) to dismantle nuclear arsenals. Audiences liked the film, which secured an \u201cA\u201d grade on CinemaScore. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cThis is a weak opening for a war drama,\u201d Gross says. \u201cAngel Studios knows how to get this audience to the theater, but this title is not getting Angel\u2019s usual traction.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAnother newcomer, Black Bear\u2019s crime thriller \u201cThe Rivals of Amziah King,\u201d starring Matthew McConaughey, earned a decent $1 million from just 632 theaters. The well-reviewed movie follows McConaughey as a honeymaker and born-again Christian whose former foster daughter reappears in his life. <\/p>\n

\n\tMeanwhile Universal\u2019s R-rated comedy \u201cOne Night Only\u201d failed to rebound, bringing in $2 million in its second weekend, a 61% decrease in ticket sales. The movie,\u00a0which takes place during the one night a year when premarital sex is legal, has grossed $10 million against a $25 million budget.<\/p>\n
