‘Lilo & Stitch’ Tops Box Office as ‘Ballerina’ Debuts Strongly

'Lilo & Stitch' remains at the top of the box office for the third weekend, while 'Ballerina,' a 'John Wick' spinoff starring Ana de Armas, opened with $25 million domestically, underperforming expectations and the franchise's previous openings. Other notable releases include 'Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning' and 'Karate Kid: Legends,' with the overall box office still recovering from the pandemic impact. Despite positive reviews, 'Ballerina' struggled to attract the core 'John Wick' fanbase, highlighting challenges in expanding the franchise's cinematic universe.
