While blockbusters often see significant slides in their second weekends, only two previous MCU titles have fallen off so fast: 2023’s “The Marvels,” which fell 78%, and 2023’s “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania,” which dropped 70%.

Osgood Perkins' horror pic 'The Monkey' scared up the second-best opening in the history of Neon, the indie label that's also home of awards darling 'Anora.'

Neon's The Monkey is on its way to posting the best opening for a horror movie YTD with $14M+ this weekend after $1.9M previews. 'Captain America: Brave New World' is Second with $28M.

Neon’s horror comedy “The Monkey” is seeing and doing a strong opening weekend, though it’ll take silver at the box office behind Disney’s “Captain America: Brave New World,” still on top of the charts but facing a substantial tumble in its second weekend.
