UK box office top 5 weekend breakdown 6th - 8th May 2022

Doctor Strange In the Multiverse of Madness

It feels like a story we have told many time, but a new Marvel movie is released and there is a big surge in the box office and we have a massive hit at the top.

The sequel to Doctor Strange has been a long time coming as the original was released in 2016, but the character has appeared in many Marvel film since then, including quite predominantly in last years Spider-Man: No Way Home for which is a spiritual successor.

The movie makes its UK debut with £19.7 Million, a staggering 82% of the box office this weekend, which is £10 Million more than its 2016 predecessor but it is way shorted than the £31.8 Milion of the last Spider-Man movie.

The road ahead is looking good for the movie, it will beat out the DC movie The Batman from earlier this year, and it has a shot at being the top movie of 2022, altohugh there are a number of high profile movie yet to come including Jurassic World: Dominion in June.

The movie already is the 6th top movie of 2022 on its debut and look set to at least climb into the top 3 by next weekend.

Downton Abbey: A New Era

A single week at the top for the Downton Abbey sequel which this weekend falls to number 2 with £1.5 Million, a 49% drop over last weekend.

This gives the movie a total gross of £7.6 Million after 2 weeks of release.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The smash hit video game movie falls to number 2 this weekend after 6 weeks on the box office with £630,391, a 53% drop over last weekend.

The movie now has a UK total of £23.5 Million and is the 5th top movie of 2022.

The Lost City

The action comedy falls to 4 this weekend with £468,402, a 61% drop over last weekend, this gives the movie an £8.6 Million total after 4 weeks of release.

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

The third in the Fantastic Beasts series can be seen as nothing but a flop for Warner Bros. as the movie falls to 5 this weekend with £401,448, a 67% drop.

The movie has now taken just £19 Million in the UK over 5 weeks of release, it is the 7th top movie of 2022.

In comparison the previous 2 movies 5 weeks into their box office runs were, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them £45 Million and Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald £30.5 Million.

It was a tight battle at the top this weekend but The Lost City~2022 just about does enough to make its debut at the top of the UK box office.

The Northman also makes a new entry at number 4 while Operation Mincemeat is also new at 5, also making their debuts are K.G.F: Chapter 2 at 7 with £612,327 and Beast~2022 at 8 with £319,464, finally director Paul Verhoeven's Benedetta is new at 11 with £62,056.

  • Number 1 - The Lost City~2022 (1st weekend)
  • Highest debut - The Lost City~2022 (@1)
  • Longest run - Sing 2 (12 weeks)
  • Highest total gross - The Batman (£40 Million)

UK box office top 5 weekend breakdown 15th - 18th April 2022

The Lost City

After a weekend full of new releases the Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum starring action comedy makes its UK box office debut at the top.

The movie takes £2.7 Million on its UK debut, this higher than Tatums hit movie Dog from earlier this year but half that of Bullocks last cinema film Ocean's 8 from 2018.

The movie has been a hit across the globe with the UK one of the last countries to get the movie, but with a number of high profile movies coming in the next few weeks this could be a short stay for the movie.

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

It was a tight margin between this and The Lost City~2022 at number 1 but the third Fantastic Beasts movie fell just short of a second weekend at the top.

With a gross of £2.6 Million, 55% down on its debut last weekend, and despite not doing that bad it is well short of the previous two movies Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and the series has simply not had the impact of the Harry Potter series.

The movie is the 7th top grosser of 2022 and there is every possibility it could return to top next weekend.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

THe video game star falls to number 3 this weekend with £2 Million, a 29% drop over last weekend giving the blue hedgehog a total UK gross of £16 Million after 3 weeks and the 5th top movie of 2022.

The Northman

Highly praised by critics the Nordic action movie directed by Robert Eggers and starring Alexander Skarsgard and Nicole Kidman lands at number 4 this weekend.

The movie takes £897,737 on its debut weekend.

Operation Mincemeat

Finally on the top 5 is another new entry with the Colin Firth starring movie which is at 5 with a debut gross of £895,008, a small margin separated this and The Northman!

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore makes its debut at the top of the US box office with the lowest debut for the series so far.

Father Stu is also new at number 5 this weekend while Indian movie K.G.F: Chapter 2 is also new at 9 with $2.8 Million.

Finally Dual starring Karen Gillan makes its debut at number 12 with $125,000 over the weekend.

US box office top 5 weekend breakdown 15th - 18th April 2022

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

This third in the Wizarding World series of movies makes a soft debut at the top of the US box office chart this weekend with $43 Million.

Compared to the last movie in the series Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald this is $20 Million lower and compared to Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is it $30 Million lower.

The Fantastic Beasts series has never hit the heights of Harry Potter, but with the controversy and difficult production of this series many critics are declaring this should be the last one and quit while your ahead.

Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Falling into second place this weekend is the blue video game hedgehog which takes $30 Million on its second weekend of release, a hefty 58% drop over last weekend.

The movie has taken a nice $119.6 Million after 2 weeks of release which is higher than Sonic the Hedgehog from 2020.

This takes the movies total gross to $78.5 Million total after 4 weeks and its the 7th top movie of 2022.

Everything Everywhere All At Once

Jumping up the box office to number 4 this weekend after being available in many more cinemas is the Michelle Yeoh starring alternate reality movie which takes $6.1 Million on its 4th weekend, a 2% increase over last week.

This gives the movie a very respectable $17.6 Million total, which could climb higher as it expands to more cinemas and is getting good critical word of mouth.
