Hello! Welcome to **The** **Box Office Report** for the weekend of March 13-15, 2026\. 

## 1\. Hoppers

*Weekend gross: *$28.5M** 
*Total domestic gross: *$86.8M** 
*Last weekend: *1st** 
*Percent drop: *37**

*Hoppers* had a terrific second weekend, holding on with just a 37 percent drop. This weekend’s $28.5 million haul puts *Hoppers* in a great position to easily clear the $100 million mark. 

While passing $100 million in North America isn’t a difficult task for a Pixar sequel (*Inside Out 2* crushed that mark with its $154.2 million debut alone), it hasn’t been as easy for the studio’s original movies as of late.

*Elio* topped out at $73 million, *Elemental* at $154.4 million, *Lightyear* at $118.3 million and *Onward* at $61.6 million. (The trio of *Luca*, *Soul* and *Turning Red* never even had a fair shot.) *Coco* was the last original Pixar movie to reach the $200 million level, finishing with $210.5 million.

## 2\. Reminders of Him

*Weekend gross: *$18.3M** 
*Total domestic gross: *$18.3M** 
*Last weekend: *New release** 
*Percent drop: *NA**

An $18.3 million opening weekend for *Reminders of Him* isn’t bad, but it’s nowhere near as great as the $50 million that *It Ends With Us*, another adaptation of a **Colleen Hoover** book, opened with in 2024\. I guess that **Blake Lively**/**Ryan Reynolds** promotional push really helped *It Ends With Us*.

## 3\. Undertone

*Weekend gross: *$9.3M** 
*Total domestic gross: *$9.3M** 
*Last weekend: *New release** 
*Percent drop: *NA**

The top five featured two very different horror movies, with *Undertone* topping *Scream 7* in its first weekend in theaters. I read the *Wikipedia* summary for *Undertone*, and — yeeeshhhh — I can’t say this is one I’m going to be checking out any time soon. Or ever. But, hey, enough folks saw it this weekend to send it to a No. 3 debut with $9.3 million.

## 4\. Scream 7

*Weekend gross: *$8.4M** 
*Total domestic gross: *$106.5M** 
*Last weekend: *2nd** 
*Percent drop: *51**

*Scream 7* is less than $2 million away from becoming the biggest domestic hit for the entire franchise. *Scream VI* topped out at $108.4 million in 2023, and it looks like the latest *Scream* film will make it back-to-back releases where the newest film set a new high mark.

## 5\. GOAT

*Weekend gross: *$4.7M** 
*Total domestic gross: *$90.6M** 
*Last weekend: *4th** 
*Percent drop: *27**

*GOAT* might not be the main animated feature in theaters right now, but even in the face of *Hoppers*, the basketball film continues to add to its box office total. With $4.7 million on the books this past weekend, *GOAT* should cross the $100 million mark over the next weekend or two.
