Its guns are still blazing.
“Weapons” remained No. 1 at the box office Friday, its second in theaters, taking in $7.4 million, according to The Numbers.
The horror-mystery is slated to enjoy a domestic total of up to $90 million through Sunday, which would make it the 14th-highest-earning North American release of the year, as per Variety.
“Freakier Friday,” the highly-anticipated sequel to 2003’s “Freaky Friday” remained in the second spot, with sales of $4.5 million.
Its director, Nisha Ganatra, has already spoken about the possibility of a third film.
“Freakiest Friday… What would it be? I mean, more swaps, right? Probably a six-way swap,” Ganatra told Screen Rant.
The action comedy “Nobody 2” took third, with a $3.86 million take on Friday, its opener.
A sequel to 2021’s “Nobody,” it made more than its predecessor’s $2.5 million opening day — the original premiered during COVID, however.
The film, which has Bob Odenkirk reprising his role as a suburban dad who moonlights as an assassin, is expected to take in $9.4 million this weekend, as per Variety.
The Guardian called it “a forgettable follow-up riddled with endless gonzo fight sequences.”
Odenkirk, 62, who had a heart attack in 2021 on the set of his hit drama series, “Better Call Saul,” still did a lot of his own stunts.
“I do my own fighting. But they don’t let me fly through the air,” he told People.
“The Fantastic Four: First Steps” moved down a notch to fourth, earning $2.4 million on its fourth Friday in theaters.
The animated comedy “The Bad Guys 2” landed in fifth, pulling in $1.94 million.
