Odyssey Defies Slump With $84.5M Second Weekend Projection

Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey is on track for an $84.5 million domestic second weekend, a 32% drop from last weekend's performance after a $123.5 million domestic opening and a $263.7 million weekend, signaling an unusually strong hold for a blockbuster. With no wide new releases this weekend, Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives next weekend. Globally the film has grossed about $322 million and has performed well on IMAX (roughly 23% of its opening haul), aided by intense sequences and a broader younger-audience appeal, including a large share of 18–34-year-olds in the opening weekend. The Odyssey is notable as the first narrative feature shot entirely on IMAX cameras.
