This week saw standout performances for “Nobody” (Universal) and “Demon Slayer – Mugen Train” (Funimation) each taking two #1 spots on the four charts we track. Netflix’s $18 million domestic-only deal for Liam Neeson acquisition “The Ice Road” seems to have paid off with a top slot. Totals for Pixar’s “Luca” are unknown, but figure it is strong at Disney+; the studio’s “Cruella” also shows well as a new $29.99 Premium VOD.

Multiple platforms, prices, and stages of release all contribute to an industry in flux. Google results for “F9 Netflix” suggest that consumer confusion could contribute to reluctance to buy theater tickets. (As the first Universal release to exceed $50 million in its first weekend, “F9” is expected to go PVOD in late July.)

Now at standard price, it returned to first or second across the board. With the additional exposure, what might have been a routine theatrical release now looks like a potential franchise Sony offshoot Funimation’s “Demon Slayer – Mugen Train” was another sleeper, this one grossing $47 million in domestic theaters. Two months later, it’s a PVOD release at $14.99 and leads on two platforms, including one that scores by transactions. Disney held back its PVOD release of “Cruella” with exclusive access for Disney+ subscribers who pay $29.99. The offer now extends to non-subscribers and the title placed at #2 on two charts, with a third at #3. It also has the #5 box-office position; with $71 million to date, it currently is the third biggest grosser of 2021. “Nobody” and “Demon Slayer” showed on all four charts, along with “Godzilla vs. Kong” (Warner Bros./$19.99). After its third weekend in theaters, “Spirit Untamed” (Universal/$19.99) was the top new PVOD release, showing up at #3 and #5 on two charts that rank by revenue. Gangster drama “Lansky” (Vertical/$6.99) starring Harvey Keitel had the best showing among original releases, including #3 at Apple TV/iTunes. The animated “Batman: The Long Halloween Part One” (Warner Bros./$19.99) is unusual among DC Comics spinoffs with its higher price. It’s #6 at FandangoNow.

Neeson’s two most recent theatrical releases, “The Honest Thief” and “The Marksman,” were top VOD titles in the last six months. Now Netflix has “The Ice Road” and as expected it was an immediate #1. It replaced “Fatherhood,” with Kevin Hart. Both these stars have been steady performers in theaters, with an easy transition to home premieres. Netflix Also just out on Netflix is “Good on Paper,” written by and starring Netflix comedy special veteran Iliza Shlesinger. It’s an offbeat romantic comedy — the sort of project that studios can no longer afford to back. Apple TV/iTunes and Google Play rank films daily by number of transactions, irrespective of revenue accrued. These are the listings for Monday, June 28.
