After 5 weeks of being #1 at the box office, Tenet's reign is over.
The War with Grandpa, the Robert De Niro comedy originally set for February 2018, took the top spot with $3.6 million. That said, it's the lowest grossing #1 new film since 1988.
Tenet took $2.1 million, another consistent 22% drop. Its domestic total now sits at $48.3 million. It's worldwide total is now $323.3 million.
The other new release this week, Yellow Rose, didn't perform nearly as well, landng only $150k. Disney also rereleased Coco for $603k.
Outside TWWG, the rest of the top 5 lost around 500 theaters, mostly thanks to the Regal shutdown and other local spots closing.
Next week sees the theater release of Liam Neeson's Honest Thief. Films hitting streaming include The Trial of the Chicago 7, Greenland, and Dylan O'Brian's Love and Monsters.
