With Weapons and Nobody 2 featuring prominently in the latest box office weekend, their performances and audience response have drawn significant attention. While Weapons held strong in its second week with a limited drop,

“Nobody 2” will likely be no match for “Weapons,” a twisty horror film from Warner Bros. and New Line that opened to a smashing $43.5 million last weekend. It’s continued to be a box office winner throughout the week and should top charts with $20 million to $22 million in its sophomore outing.

With $60 million domestically and another $40 million from overseas markets, Weapons has grossed exactly $100 million worldwide. It's the third horror hit in a row this year for distributor Warner Bros.

New Line's horror pic and Disney's family comedy delivered a double win for the late summer box office, as well as a victory for two challenged genres.

Horror is flying at the 2025 box office, but scary movies have been on the up for a long time. Weapons and Bring Her Back are just the latest success stories.
