Three are Venom: Third ‘Venom’ movie wins its third weekend

Hello! Welcome to The Box Office Report for the weekend of Nov. 8-10, 2024.

1. Venom: The Last Dance

Weekend gross: $16.2M
Total domestic gross: $114.8M
Last weekend: 1st
Percent drop: 37

With little serious new competition this weekend, Venom: The Last Dance snagged another No. 1 finish. Great news for the movie, but this sequel has a long way to go before it matches its two predecessors.

Through three weekends, the original Venom was at $171.1 million and Venom: Let There Be Carnage was at $168.1 million. Those two movies finished with almost the exact same domestic gross — Venom with $213.5 million and Let There Be Carnage with $213.6 million.

2. The Best Christmas Pageant Ever

Weekend gross: $11.1M
Total domestic gross: $11.1M
Last weekend: New release
Percent drop: NA

The Best Christmas Pageant Ever is the biggest opening weekend for director Dallas Jenkins. After making (small) box office waves with The Chosen series, Jenkins cracked the $10 million debut mark with this adaptation starring Judy Greer and Pete Holmes.

Not bad for a movie that has really flown under the radar. If it wasn’t for a trailer running before The Wild Robot, I would’ve had no idea The Best Christmas Pageant Ever even existed.
