Disney’s Lilo & Stitch topped the box office for the third consecutive weekend with an estimated $32.5 million from 4,185 theaters after clearing the $300 million milestone on Thursday.
Ballerina, the first John Wick spinoff, opened in second place with a softer-than-expected $25 million from 3,409 venues, the lowest start of any title in the series except for the first John Wick in 2014. Ana de Armas plays the title role in the R-rated action pic, with main franchise star Keanu Reeves also making an appearance.
Paramount and Skydance’s Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning, which, like Lilo & Stitch, is enjoying a strong hold on the box office in its third outing (the two event titles opened opened opposite each other over Memorial Day weekend to fuel a record holiday).
