Box Office: ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Topping Charts in Sixth Weekend as ‘Reagan’ and ‘Afraid’ Post Quiet Opening Days
'Deadpool & Wolverine' will again top the box office as the summer ends quietly, with Blumhouse's 'Afraid' and Dennis Quaid's 'Reagan' opening small.
Even in its sixth weekend, Disney’s “Deadpool & Wolverine” is landing the top slot on domestic charts once again as theaters take in an assortment of low-performing new releases, including Dennis Quaid’s presidential biopic “ Reagan ” and the Blumhouse horror feature “ Afraid.” The sci-fi thriller, which follows John Cho and Katherine Waterston as a married couple whose AI-assisted household begins to attack their family, earned $1.3 million across its opening day and previews. And that number is buoyed from a large fraction of ticket sales coming from the filmmakers and John Devaney, founder of United Capital and Manor House Films, who gave away $1 million in free admissions to draw attention to the issues-based drama.
