The Wayans Brothers ensured that the horror genre continues to dominate the summer box office, as their return to the Scary Movie franchise after a quarter-century earned $55 million on its opening weekend. That’s not all though — Backrooms set another record after its shocking debut, and Obsession crossed a big milestone of its own.
This success in the horror realm unfortunately meant that Masters of the Universe saw disappointing numbers on opening weekend, earning just $29.3 million over its first three days, as blockbusters like Disclosure Day and Toy Story 5 draw nearer on the 2026 movie release schedule.
