'The Invitation' leads the Weekend Box Office with $7 Million.
Three brand-new films have all landed with a thud at the domestic box office. With $54 million in total, this is one of the worst weekends at the box office this year. Sony’s poorly marketed horror picture The Invitation claimed the number one spot almost by default, with a paltry $7 million from over 3,100 theaters. The weekend’s two other newcomers — George Miller’s Three Thousand Years of Longing and John Boyega-led heist film Breaking — were essentially dead on arrival.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Three Thousand Years of Longing, Miller’s first film since his groundbreaking action spectacle Mad Max: Fury Road, debuted in over 2,400 theaters but could manage only a seventh place finish with $2.87 million in its first three days — a terrible result for any film playing that wide, but a particularly worrying outcome for a visually arresting original picture from a beloved auteur.
Based on a true story, the positively reviewed Breaking couldn’t crack the top 10 in its debut weekend. The drama finished at the 13th spot with a hair over $1 million from 902 theaters. Bullet Train took the number two spot in its fourth weekend, with $5.6 million. The action film, starring Brad Pitt as an assassin in Japan, has made a so-so $78 million domestically so far, and it looks like it’s about to run out of gas.
