Sci-fi blockbuster "Dune" continues to top the North American box office in its second week

The sci-fi blockbuster "Dune" brought in $15.5 million last weekend, which seems insignificant during the epidemic, but is still enough to lead the box office of movies currently released in North American theaters.

"Dune" was released in North American theaters on October 25, with a box office of 40.1 million US dollars in its first week, setting a 2021 box office record for Warner Bros. films in the first three days of release.

Cinema box office analysts pointed out the reasons for the sharp decline in the second week, such as Halloween on Sunday, which will also affect Saturday's box office, and the epidemic has led to a decrease in the number of theaters, and "Dune" was also launched on the HBO Max online film subscription service platform. Even so, according to Box Office Mojo data, after the release of "Dune", "Halloween Kills", as a seasonal film and a sequel to a classic horror movie, ranked second with a box office revenue of 8.5 million US dollars; "007: No Time to Die" ranked third with a box office revenue of 7.8 million US dollars.
