After a month at the top of the box office, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” has finally been overtaken by “Scream.'

This image released by Paramount Pictures shows Ghostface in a scene from"Scream."

That made for a solid revival for the self-aware slasher franchise. Rights to the “Scream” films, once a reliable cash cow for Harvey and Bob Weinstein's Miramax Films, were acquired by Spyglass Media Group, which produced the new film with Paramount. This “Scream," helmed by Matt Bettinello-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, was the first not directed by Wes Craven, who died in 2015.

Meanwhile, “Spider-Man: No Way Home” slipped to second place but continued to rise in the record books. While the debut of “Scream” could be celebrated by Paramount, which postponed most of its top 2021 releases to 2022 , its performance also typified current box-office realities. Superhero movies and genre films that appeal to younger audiences have bounced back to near pre-pandemic levels, while films skewing older haven't.

No Way Home I already bought. Scream 5… I will never see.

Portanto eu trarei sobre os humanos um duro tratamento,Trarei sobre eles o que eles mais temem.Porquanto Eu chamei,e ninguém sequer esboçou resposta ; preguei e ninguém deu ouvidos.Praticaram o mal diante da minha pessoa e escolheram fazer tudo quanto me desagrada profundamente!”
