‘Mortal Kombat’ & ‘Demon Slayer’ Continue Gritty B.O. Fight For No. 1; But Both Pics Hit The Mat Hard In Weekend 2 Deadline 3 hrs ago
Demon Slayer, which had very notable openings and further revived the domestic B.O. last weekend, dropped precipitously this weekend, respectively at
-73% and
$6.4M for No. 1, with a running total of
$32.2M, and New Line’s
Mortal Kombat is at No. 2 with a weekend 2 of
$6.2M and a $34M 10-day total. No one was expecting this type of tumble. What does this say as the US has close to 70% of 40,7K screens reopened, and there’s talk of Los Angeles and San Francisco moving to the yellow tier, which could get theaters at 75% capacity? (It’s not as easy as that reads, more on that in a bit).
