Venom: The Last Dance” enjoyed another weekend at the top of the box office. The Sony release starring Tom Hardy added $26.1 million in ticket sales, according to studio estimates Sunday.

Venom 3 defies critical reviews with impressive box office performance, thanks to Tom Hardy's final outing, international success, and rumors.

Paramount and Temple Hill’s Smile 2 placed No. 3 in its third outing as it crossed the $100 million mark at the global box office. The pic fell 29 percent in North America to $6.8 million for a domestic tally of $52.6 million and $109.7 million (it is unusual for a horror film to travel so well overseas, where the sequel has grossed $57.1 million).
