Which much of the top 5 staying in the same place this weekend the highest new movie is at number 6 with The Life of Chuck taking £486,294 on its debut.
Worth noting is the this weeks top 15 is one of the lowest weekend total for many weekend with little in the way of big blockbuster movies getting released, and summer holdovers like Superman~2025 and The Fantastic Four First Steps simply not bringing in the numbers.
In a surprise move the Zach Cregger directed movie Weapons~2026 tops the UK box office ahead of the Disney movie Freakier Friday which lands at number 2.
Weapons~2026 opens its box office run with a very decent debut gross of £2.1 Million.
Disneys latest movie Freakier Friday makes its debut at 2 with a gross of £1.7 Million which compared to the original movie from 2003.
The Fantastic Four: First Steps drop off the top spot after 2 weeks and has a total gross of £19 Million, maybe not quite the hit Disney was looking for!

In a surprise move Weapons~2026 directed by Zach Cregger and starring Josh Brolin makes its debut at the top of the North American box office.
The movie takes a very good $42 Million on its debut after good reviews and audience scores.
After a couple of weeks at the top The Fantastic Four: First Steps drops to the number 3 spot and has a total gross of nearly $230.5 Million, the movie is not being the bog hit that Disney/Marvel were hoping for!

If you live in London, England and are fortunate to be around the BFI Film on Film Festival you were in for a special treat on 12th June as the festival had the first screening of the original cut of Star Wars, the first showing of this cut since 1978!
The movie was significantly changed in the Special Edition version of Star Wars in 1998 in the run up to the first prequel movie Star Wars Episode I The Phantom Menace in 1999.
This was a very rare treat for fans of the series as the Special Editions, especially of this movie, have caused controversy over the year, especially the now famous "Han Shoots First" scene.
A brief history of this print of the film as found in various sources on the internet:
The BFI (British Film Institute) found the print in their archives and after contacting Lucasfilm about doing a screening they agreed.
Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy said she was surprise that the print existed, but agreed to the screening as she thinks it is a valuable artifact in historical cinema.
Kennedy presented the showing to prove it was a legal copy!
As explained by the BFI
"In these very special screenings, we present the film exactly as experienced by audiences on its original 1977 release. Screening from one of the precious handful of dye transfer IB Technicolor prints produced uniquely for the first British release, and preserved in the BFI National Archive"
Lets hope this sentiment to the original cut goes that bit further and, as the whole trilogy is owned by Disney since the buyout of Fox, it gets a 4K remastered home release, as well as Star Wars The Empire Strikes Back and Star Wars Return of the Jedi.

Statham as an action hero is a staple of cinema these days and pulls in good number on debut weekends so next weeks box office will be interesting especially with the new release of A Minecraft Movie.
Falling to number 2 this weekend is Disney's trouble movie Snow White~2024 which for a live action remake is not pulling in the number despite better than expected reviews.
On its second weekend of relese it takes $14.3 Million for a total North American gross of nearly $67 Million - it could hit $100 Million but not a lot more!
The rest of the top 5 was new releases with religious series The Chosen: Last Supper - Part 1 at number 3, horror movie The Woman In the Yard at 4 and mystical drama/horror Death of a Unicorn at 5, perhaps the biggest surprise of the weekend considering the talent of Jenna Ortega and Paul Rudd.
