The planetary saga of Star Wars continued its race at the speed of light this weekend, keeping by far the head of the North American box office thanks to its last opus, The Ascension of Skywalker , according to provisional figures published this Sunday by the specialized company Exhibitor Relations.
Disney's feature film, which closes the 42-year-old franchise, raised $ 33.7 million from Friday to Sunday. In total, in three weeks, it garnered some $ 451 million in the United States and Canada.
Very good weekend for Sony
Behind this first place, Sony also had a very good weekend by qualifying in the top 5 the following three feature films. Jumanji: Next level , featuring young people propelled in a video game, clings to second place, with revenues of $ 26.5 million for the weekend.
On the third step of the podium, Les Filles du Docteur March , a new adaptation of the novel by Louisa May Alcott, notably with Emma Watson and Meryl Streep, raised $ 13.6 million for its second week (and nearly $ 60 million in total) since its release).
A horror film and a cartoon
New for the week, the horror film The Grudge is ranked fourth, with $ 11.3 million earned. This is a new version of a Japanese horror film released in 2002. He is neck and neck with Frozen 2 , in fifth place. The Disney animated film, which follows the story of the royal family of Arendelle, still raised for its seventh week some 11.3 million dollars.
