Top 5 Highest Grossing Films for Weekend of August 12-14, 2022
5. Nope ($5.4 million)
4. Thor: Love and Thunder ($5.4 million)
3. DC League of Super-Pets ($7 million)
2. Top Gun: Maverick ($7.05 million)
1. Bullet Train ($13.4 million)
This weekend was a quiet one at the box office, with no wide releases; as a result, the top five consisted entirely of films that have already been released. The newest film, “Bullet Train,” made it to number one, grossing just under half its premiere box office from last weekend.
The only film this weekend that experienced an uptick in ticket sales was “Top Gun: Maverick”, which made 2% more than last weekend. After dropping out of the top 5 last weekend due to “Minions: The Rise of Gru” grossing slightly more, this film soared back to the top, taking on the number-two spot. To date, it has made $673.8 million across the United States, as well as a combined worldwide total of $1.4 billion. It remains the highest-grossing film of 2022, dominating “Jurassic World: Dominion” by more than $400 million!
