Box Office: ‘Garfield’ Wins Sluggish Weekend With $14M as ‘Furiosa’ Runs Out of Gas

And yeartodate revenue is now down 24 percent over last year. For some, there is reason to smile. Alcon and Sonys The Garfield Movie easily purred past George Millers Furiosa A Mad Max Saga to top the weekend chart with an estimated $14 million for a domestic tally of $51.6 million. Alcon fully financed the $60 million film, which crossed the $100 million mark overseas for a global tally of $152.2 million. Furiosa, costing a pricey $168 million to produce, fell a steep 59 percent to $10.75 million, dashing hopes that it could rebound after a disappointing Memorial Day opening. The dystopian epic is also stalling overseas, where it took in only $21 million from 77 markets for a global total of $114.4 million ($49.7 million domestic, $64.7 million international). No one would have expected Garfield to earn more than Furiosa this weekend internationally, with $27 million from 60 markets. Compounding Furiosas woes, the film also got edged out by John Krasinskis original family film IF, now in its third weekend. The Ryan Reynoldsstarrer is enjoying strong staying power, and grossed another $10.8 million domestically for a North American tally of $80.4 million and $138 million worldwide. 20th Century and Disneys The Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes placed No. 4 domestically with $8.8 million while earning another $15.2 million from 52 markets overseas to rank as the topgrossing summer title to date with $337.1 million in worldwide ticket sales. Domestically, the newest installment in the longrunning franchise has grossed $140 million and is on the verge of passing up the $147 million earned by 2017s War for the Planet of the Apes. The Fall Guy remained in the upper reaches of the chart despite now being available on premium VOD. The Ryan GoslingEmily Blunt action comedy grossed $4.2 million to place No. 5. The movies global tally is $157.9 million. Crunchyroll and Sonys anime sports film Haikyu!! The Dumpster Battle placed No. 6 with an estimated opening of $3.5 million from 1,125 theaters. The Japanese film was among several new movies opening moderately wide in hopes of taking advantage of the slowdown in big studio event tiles. IFC opened In a Violent Storm in 1,426 cinemas, its widest release ever. Violent Storm came in No. 8 with an estimated $2 million, followed by Bleecker Streets Ezra with $1.2 million from 1,325 locations. Roadside Attractions Summer Camp, targeting older adults with stars including Diane Keaton, Kathy Bates and Alfre Woodard, rounded out the top 10 with a disappointing $1 million. At the specialty box office, Searchlight released the biographical drama Young Woman and the Sea, starring Daisy Ridley as the reallife young English woman who was famous for swimming the English Channel. The film, which is only planned in 300 theaters, is expected to take in $500,000 or thereabouts. A year ago on this same weekend, Sonys SpiderMan Across the SpiderVerse opened worldwide to $208.6 million. This, in part, explains why this weekends combined revenue of $60 million is down a steep 69 percent from the same frame last year. June 2, 725 a.m.
