Regretting You Leads Worst Weekend of 2025[/I]

Halloween was light on the box office treats. In a surprise win, the Colleen Hoover adaptation Regretting You rose to No. 1 with $8.1 million from 3,424 theaters in its sophomore outing.
However, Universal’s Black Phone 2 was ever-so-slightly behind with $8 million from 3,305 venues — so the final order could shift when final numbers are confirmed on Monday. It has grossed $61 million domestically and $104 million globally to date.
Netflix’s KPop Demon Hunters re-release likely tied for No. 3 with Sony and Crunchyroll’s Chainsaw Man – The Movie: Reze Arc, with both films estimating a $6 million weekend haul.
Netflix isn’t reporting grosses for KPop Demon Hunters, which played 2,890 theaters over the weekend, so projections hail from rival studios and exhibitors.
Chainsaw Man, which topped the box office last weekend, has grossed $30 million in North America to date. Like many anime films, it has been much bigger at the international box office, with earnings at $109 million overseas and $139 million globally.
In fifth place, Bugonia, the latest collaboration between director Yorgos Lanthimos and star Emma Stone, successfully expanded nationwide with $4.8 million from 2,043 theaters.
Elsewhere, Back to the Future returned to theaters in honor of the film’s 40th anniversary and collected a respectable $4.7 million from 2,105 theaters over the weekend.
The Twilight Saga also made its way back to the big screen to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the publishing of author Stephanie Meyer’s first novel. Theaters are playing one of the five Twilight films each night between Oct. 29 and Nov. 2, which have collectively accounted for roughly $3 million from 1,500 locations.
