Disney’s live-action Lilo and Stitch, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, and Karate Kid: Legends were the big players at the box office this past weekend, with Disney once again proving its remake magic still pulls in massive crowds.
Let’s break down what most audiences were watching from May 30 to June 1:
#5 – Bring Her Back ($7M)
A24’s latest horror flick, Bring Her Bac,k made its debut with $7 million, introducing a new story that clearly resonated with genre fans. It may not have cracked double digits, but for a smaller studio and original concept, this marks a solid start.
#4 – Final Destination: Bloodlines ($10.8M)
The Final Destination franchise refuses to die—literally. Bloodlines added another $10.8 million to its tally, bringing the domestic total to a nice $111.7 million. With its mix of new blood and the death-is-coming vibes, the film keeps fans coming back.
#3 – Karate Kid: Legends ($21M)
Sony’s latest reboot/sequel hybrid kicked its way into third place with $21 million on debut weekend. Legends blends old-school nostalgia (yes, the OG character is back) with a few fresh faces, making it attractive for long-time fans and newbies alike. Karate never dies!
#2 – Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning ($27.3M)
Tom Cruise is still out here saving the world (and the box office). The Final Reckoning pulled in $27.3 million, pushing its total to $122.6 million. With the franchise nearing its finale, fans are clearly invested in Ethan Hunt’s final ride.
#1 – Lilo & Stitch ($63M)
Disney’s live-action Lilo & Stitch continues its domination streak, earning a massive $63 million this weekend and reaching a whopping $280.1 million total. That makes it the second-highest-grossing film of the year so far. Family-friendly nostalgia? It’s a winning formula, and Stitch is still stealing hearts about 23 years after the original animated film premiered.
