“Mission: Impossible – Fallout” predictably dominated the US weekend box office.<\/p>\n

It also set a new high mark for the “M:I” franchise.<\/p>\n

Per studio estimates, “Fallout” will close the weekend with $61.5 million in US receipts. The tally more than quadruples that of the weekend’s #2 film. It meanwhile edges the $57.8 million earned by “Mission: Impossible II” to rank as a new opening weekend high mark for the franchise.<\/p>\n

“Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again” holds at #2 on this weekend’s chart with $15.0 million. Its cumulative gross now stands at $70.4 million.<\/p>\n

“The Equalizer 2” drops two spots to #3 with $14.0 million (cume now $64.2 million), while a weekend gross of $12.3 million (cume now $119.2 million) brings “Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation” down one spot to #4.<\/p>\n

New release “Teen Titans Go! To The Movies,” which earned $10.5 million, holds at #5.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Fallout” delivered the “M:I” franchise’s best opening weekend tally.","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":116243,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[36,1050],"tags":[10827,11285,11382,11384,11345],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n"Mission: Impossible - Fallout" Wins US Weekend Box Office, Sets New Franchise Record<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\""Mission: Impossible - Fallout" predictably dominated the US weekend box office.
