The Odyssey Gives Nolan a New High

The Odyssey finished third with $19.5 million in its sixth weekend, according to the Toronto Sun and Yahoo Movies Canada. The same reports put its domestic total at about $539.1 million.

That figure matters because Yahoo Movies Canada reported it has passed the unadjusted domestic gross of The Dark Knight, which stood at $534.9 million. The outlet also reported that The Odyssey reached about $1.4 billion worldwide, helped by strong turnout in South Korea and China, making it Nolan’s highest-grossing title to date.

Yahoo Entertainment also noted that The Odyssey had become the highest-grossing R-rated release ever the previous week. For a long, expensive, adult-skewing Nolan film to keep earning at this level in its sixth weekend is not just a nice hold. It is a reminder that premium theatrical appetite does not belong only to comic-book brands and family animation.

The drop tells the story. The Toronto Sun reported The Odyssey was down only 17 percent from the prior weekend. A sixth-weekend fall that small, while Spider-Man and a new Insidious are both taking oxygen, is the kind of hold studios spend years trying to engineer.

New Releases Found Little Space

Beyond Insidious, the new films had a rougher weekend. Yahoo Entertainment reported that Mutiny opened with $7.5 million, while Spa Weekend opened a little over $3 million and had the lowest per-theater average among the weekend top ten.

Yahoo Movies Canada reported Mutiny, a Lionsgate title starring Jason Statham as a man framed for killing his billionaire employer, opened in sixth place from 2,703 screens. The same outlet reported the film had briefly streamed for free on Prime Video by mistake before release, while also noting poor reviews as a drag on its performance.

Spa Weekend landed ninth with an estimated $3.1 million across 2,009 theaters, according to Yahoo Movies Canada. The outlet described it as a vacation comedy with Isla Fisher, Leslie Mann, Anna Faris and Michelle Buteau, and reported that PostTrak data showed women made up roughly 84 percent of its opening audience.

The rest of the chart was mostly holdovers and curiosities. The Toronto Sun placed Paw Patrol: The Dino Movie fourth with $9.1 million, The End of Oak Street fifth with $9 million, Tony seventh with $5 million, The Fast and the Furious re-release eighth with $3.1 million, and Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma tenth with $1.9 million.

Yahoo Movies Canada reported the summer season has reached about $4.4 billion in North American ticket sales through Labor Day, among the four highest summer frames on record. It also reported year-to-date box office has crossed $7 billion, up 20.4 percent from 2025 but still 7.1 percent below 2019.

That is the tension inside this weekend’s chart. Spider-Man is huge. The Odyssey is historic for Nolan. Insidious did its job. Underneath them, several films could barely get heard over the noise.

Every factual claim above is drawn from these. The reading of them is ours.
