In what appears to be the slowest moviegoing weekend of 2025—one of the worst in the post-COVID-19 era—Paramount’s action-comedy Novocaine easily tops the domestic box office with an $8.7 million haul, edging out Mickey 17 and Steven Soderbergh’s Black Bag; starring Jack Quaid as an action hero whose genetics allow him to feel no harm, Novocaine showcases a fitting plot that helped it outperform rivals in a weekend where not one movie crossed $10 million, even as Captain America: Brave New World and A Looney Tunes Movie: The Day the Earth Stood Still continued to battle it out, while theaters look to the upcoming Snow White and A Minecraft Movie to spark a much-needed revival.
