Independent films demonstrated resilience at the box office over the Super Bowl weekend, with several limited releases and holdovers achieving notable grosses despite competition from major events. Highlights included strong openings for 'Pillion' and 'Stray Kids: The dominATE Experience,' alongside milestones for A24's 'Marty Supreme' and Focus Features' 'Hamnet.' Global charts were led by the K-pop concert documentary from Stray Kids.
Over the Martin Luther King Jr. Day weekend in 2026, indie films like Hamnet and No Other Choice saw significant expansions and solid grosses, contributing to a diverse box office performance. Major releases such as Avatar: Fire and Ash continued to dominate globally, while the re-release of The Lord of the Rings trilogy marked its 25th anniversary with impressive returns. Sony's 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple opened softly domestically but found success in international markets like the UK and Mexico.
