The Odyssey Eyes $84.5 Million Second Weekend as Domestic Drop Holds to 32%

Summary
$84.5 million would put The Odyssey on course for one of the summer’s strongest second weekends, after it opened to $123.5 million domestically.
A 32% decline is unusually light for a blockbuster, helped by a weekend with no new wide releases as studios avoided going head-to-head with Christopher Nolan’s film.
$322 million worldwide already underscores the movie’s momentum, with Imax and other premium screens driving results; Imax alone supplied 23% of opening-weekend revenue.
Half of the opening audience was ages 18 to 34, suggesting Nolan has pulled in younger moviegoers ahead of next weekend’s arrival of Spider-Man: Brand New Day.
