Long live Barbenheimer!
In their second weeks, Barbie — whose ticket sales declined just 43% from its debut —and Oppenheimer continued to dominate the box office, bolstering a previously lackluster summer box office, as per Comscore.
At the top spot, Barbie earned $93 million domestically, bringing its cume to $351.4 million. Internationally, the Greta Gerwig-directed smash raked in $122.2 million this weekend, bringing the film's worldwide total so far to a staggering $774.5 million.
In only its second week, the certified global phenom is already the third highest-grossing film of the year, behind the Chris Pratt-starring The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. At this pace, Barbie could become only the second film to cross the billion-dollar mark at the global box office, behind other childhood icon Super Mario.

Oppenheimer continued to benefit from being hitched to Barbie's hot pink wagon, taking in $46.2 million, for a domestic total of $174 million and a global total of $400.4 million. That brings Barbenheimer's cume to over $1.1 billion.
Opening at No. 3, Disney's all-star Haunted Mansion, inspired by the theme park ride, grossed $24.2 million domestically ($33.3 million globally). With a cast that includes Owen Wilson, Tiffany Haddish, LaKeith Stanfield, Jamie Lee Curtis, Rosario Dawson, and Danny DeVito, the film follows a woman and her son who enlist a motley crew of so-called spiritual experts to help rid their home of supernatural squatters.

"I'm a real fan of the ride," director Justin Simien told EW, noting the sheer amount of Easter eggs littered throughout the film. "I probably would be classified as a Disney Adult if I wasn't making movies for a living."
Rounding out the weekend's top five at the box office, Sound of Freedom continues its controversial run, snagging $12.4 million in its fourth week of release, for a domestic total of $149 million. And Mission: Impossible — Dead Reckoning, Part One shows little sign of life domestically with $10.7 million in its third week, bringing its total in the States to $139.2 million, though it's netted a much more respectable $448.5 million globally.
