** Tom Cruise’s latest *Mission: Impossible* flick, *The Final Reckoning*, is off to a roaring start in India, pulling in ₹33 crore in just two days. That makes it the biggest Hollywood opening of 2025 so far, beating out *Final Destination Bloodlines* and *Thunderbolts*. Fans are clearly all in—strong advance bookings and Cruise’s star power seem to be driving the hype.

What This Mean: ** This isn’t just another big weekend for Hollywood in India—it’s a sign that audiences are still hungry for high-octane action, especially when it’s got a megastar like Cruise leading the charge. For theaters, it’s a welcome boost after some quieter months, and for Hollywood studios, it’s proof that India’s market is still a major player for global blockbusters.

** The horror flick *Final Destination: Bloodlines* just crushed its opening weekend, pulling in $51 million domestically and $102 million worldwide—proving the franchise still has serious bite after a 13-year break. Warner Bros. had a killer weekend overall, with *Sinners* and *A Minecraft Movie* also landing in the top five. But it wasn’t all good news: The Weeknd’s new thriller *Hurry Up Tomorrow* stumbled, barely cracking the top six.

What This Mean: ** Horror fans clearly weren’t done with *Final Destination*—this debut shows nostalgia and fresh scares can still pack theaters. For Warner Bros., it’s a win that could greenlight more revivals (or sequels). But the weak showing for *Hurry Up Tomorrow* hints that star power alone doesn’t guarantee success, especially in a crowded market. If you’re keeping score, this weekend was all about legacy franchises over flashy new bets.
