In North America, James Cameron's film is maintaining its dominance at the box office, securing the top position for the fifth consecutive weekend. During this period leading up to Monday, January 19, 2026, it earned approximately $13.3 million, solidifying its status as a box office powerhouse. A new release, '28 Years Later: The Bone Temple', debuted but secured only $13 million, closely following the top-grossing film. The anticipation for 'The Bone Temple' was high, originally projected to earn at least $20 million over its opening weekend, indicating a slight disappointment in its actual performance. However, its critical reception remains strong with a 93% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and a positive audience response showing that 72% would recommend the film. Internationally, 'The Bone Temple' gained $16.2 million across 61 markets, showcasing some commercial appeal outside of North America. Despite its second-place finish, the film directed by Nia DaCosta could benefit from positive word-of-mouth, similar to other successful releases like 'The Housemaid' and 'Zootopia 2.' While audiences may have been drawn to James Cameron’s feature, Disney’s enthusiasm was bolstered as 'Zootopia 2' became the highest-grossing animated film released by the Motion Picture Association, surpassing $1.7 billion globally. 'Zootopia 2' is now recognized as the ninth largest global release of all time. Meanwhile, other films, including 'The Housemaid', 'Marty Supreme', and older titles like 'Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring', also contributed to a diverse box office atmosphere, but none could outshine the consistent revenue generated by the ongoing success of 'Avatar: Fire and Ash'. The overall box office landscape reflects shifting audience interests with major implications for studios and future releases, as films navigate evolving viewer preferences during this critical time.
