\n\tTwo action flicks, Paramount\u2019s \u201cBy Any Means<\/a>\u201d and A24\u2019s \u201cOnslaught<\/a>,\u201d arrived in theaters on Friday. But neither could dethrone \u201cSpider-Man: Brand New Day<\/a>,\u201d which remains No. 1 in its sixth weekend in theaters.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSpider-Man\u201d added $3.9 million on Friday, pushing it past the mind-boggling milestone of $900 million domestically. It\u2019s now the fastest movie to cross the benchmark \u2014 doing so in just 36 days \u2014 and it beats the 50-day record set by 2015\u2019s \u201cStar Wars: The Force Awakens.\u201d The Marvel-Sony tentpole is projected to make $22 million over the four-day Labor Day weekend, pushing its domestic total to $922 million. It\u2019s only a matter of time until \u201cBrand New Day\u201d crosses $936 million and passes \u201cThe Force Awakens\u201d as the highest-grossing domestic film of all time.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBy Any Means\u201d performed the best of the two newcomers, earning $2.7 million domestically on Friday to finish fourth behind \u201cSpider-Man,\u201d \u201cThe Odyssey\u201d and \u201cCoyote vs. Acme.\u201d Through the long weekend, the \u201960s thriller is expected to make $8.5 million. Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Mark Wahlberg headline the film, which sees a young FBI agent recruit a mafia hitman to help investigate the murders of civil rights leaders in 1960s Mississippi. Nicole Beharie, Josh Lucas, LisaGay Hamilton and LaChanze also star. Elegance Bratton directs with a screenplay by Sascha Penn.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cOnslaught\u201d is failing to connect after only grossing $770,000 on Friday; it\u2019s on pace to pull in just $2.3 million by Monday. Adria Arjona leads the action movie as Celeste, an army sniper who must protect her daughter from a squad of genetically engineered super soldiers. Other cast members include Dan Stevens, Eric Wareheim, Reginald VelJohnson, Michael Biehn, Blake Kennedy and Alex Pereira. \u201cGodzilla vs. Kong\u201d filmmaker Adam Wingard directs the film with a script by Simon Barrett.<\/p>\n

\n\tAnother July holdover, Universal\u2019s \u201cThe Odyssey,\u201d grossed $3 million on Friday, vaulting it to second place. Through Monday, it should pull in $16.4 million, pushing its North American haul to $588 million.<\/p>\n

\n\tKetchup Entertainment\u2019s \u201cCoyote vs. Acme,\u201d which also launched last week, fared much better in its second weekend. On Friday, it collected $2.6 million, and by the end of the weekend, it should pull in about $15.3 million. That figure notches up the domestic total for the Looney Tunes comedy to $37.8 million.<\/p>\n

\n\t20th Century\u2019s \u201cThe Dog Stars\u201d continues to struggle as it enters its second weekend. The dystopian drama made just $720,000 on Friday. By the end of its sophomore weekend, \u201cThe Dog Stars\u201d is expected to earn $3.7 million, down from its disastrous $8 million opening.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Two action flicks, Paramount\u2019s \u201cBy Any Means\u201d and A24\u2019s \u201cOnslaught,\u201d arrived in theaters on Friday.
