Now in its second week of release, Mufasa: The Lion King came out on top at the box office in the United States during the five-day Christmas weekend. It earned $63.7 million, bringing its domestic total up to $111.4 million.

Sonic the Hedgehog 3 came in second with $59.9 million, per Deadline, while Robert Eggers’ Nosferatu made an impressive $40.3 million. With an estimated budget of $50 million, the vampire horror flick looks like it could be a massive hit for A24 if it continues to perform in the coming weeks.
