Warner Bros.’ Horror Hit ‘Weapons’ Nears $150 Million Worldwide After Strong Hold

Warner Bros.’ horror release “Weapons” remained the top draw in North American cinemas, generating an estimated $25 million in its second weekend from 3,450 locations. The haul represents a slim 43% decline from its debut frame—an unusually small drop for the genre—lifting the domestic total to about $89.1 million. Overseas, the Zach Cregger–directed film added a further $18.4 million, down 33% week-on-week, taking the international tally to roughly $59.7 million. Combined global ticket sales now stand at $148.8 million after ten days in release. The performance cements “Weapons” as August’s breakout hit and gives Warner Bros. another midsummer success following earlier franchise titles. Industry analysts note that the picture’s strong hold, aided by positive word-of-mouth, positions it to surpass the studio’s reported $38 million acquisition cost well before the end of its theatrical run.
