“The Conjuring: Last Rites” dominated the box office with a record-breaking $34.5 million opening day, surpassing all previous franchise entries. The horror film is projected to earn over $50 million for the weekend, making it the highest-grossing horror film domestically in 2025 and potentially the seventh-biggest overall. Despite mediocre reviews, the film's success continues the Warner Bros. streak of seven consecutive openings exceeding $40 million. Other notable releases include "Hamilton", performing well despite its availability on Disney+, and "Weapons", still strong in its fifth weekend.
