At its U.S. locations, AMC enjoyed its highest-attended Thursday-through-Monday period of 2026, reflecting continued strong momentum at the box office as the industry heads into a busy summer moviegoing season.<\/p>\n<p>\nLeading the weekend was THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU, with a media-reported $82 million domestically over a 3-day period and around $100 million when including the holiday Monday. The film\u2019s strong debut also marks the fifth movie in the past two months to open to more than $75 million domestically, underscoring the growing consistency of major theatrical releases in 2026.<\/p>\n<p>\nIn addition to the box office performance, demand was strong for collectible items tied to THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. AMC guests sought out the Grogu Pram popcorn vessel, Mando Helmet popcorn bucket, and more. As a result, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU\u2019s movie-themed merchandise program performance is the third best in AMC history during a movie\u2019s opening weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\nNot to be lost among a strong blockbuster opening, the weekend also featured an impressive hold from OBSESSION, which delivered rare week-over-week box office strength and continued to resonate with audiences. At the domestic box office, OBSESSION earned a media-reported $30-plus million during the Memorial Day holiday weekend. That\u2019s up more than 30% versus its opening weekend. And MICHAEL continued its exceptionally strong run at the box office during the holiday weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\nThese results highlight the sustained appeal of theatrical moviegoing when audiences are presented with compelling, well-marketed films across a range of genres.<\/p>\n<p>\nAMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron commented:<br \/>\n<br \/>\u201cWe congratulate the talented filmmakers, cast, and crew behind THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU, along with our partners at Disney and Lucasfilm, on delivering a film that has clearly captured the attention of moviegoers around the world. This film stood out as the clear number one title of the weekend, drawing strong attendance across our theatres globally, and it adds to a growing list of successful releases, becoming the fifth film in the past two months to open above $75 million domestically.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nAron continued:<br \/>\n<br \/>\u201cThe Memorial Day holiday weekend once again demonstrated the power of the big screen experience. Just as importantly, the consistency we are seeing at the box office is unmistakable, with five films in the past two months alone opening above $75 million domestically. At the same time, the continued strength of OBSESSION and ongoing success of MICHAEL shows that audiences are not only turning out for new releases, but are also sustaining strong interest in films with positive word of mouth. When compelling content meets the theatrical experience, the results speak for themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\nThe strong summer moviegoing season is expected to continue in the weeks ahead, with a steady pipeline of major releases scheduled to arrive in theatres throughout the summer. SCARY MOVIE (June 5); MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE (June 5); DISCLOSURE DAY (June 12); TOY STORY 5 (June 19); SUPERGIRL (June 26); MINIONS &amp; MONSTERS (July 1) all arrive over the next five weekends.
