Two Lord of the Rings movies have landed in the domestic box office Top 10. The trilogy, which was adapted from the iconic fantasy novels of the same name by J.R.R. Tolkien, was released between 2001 and 2003 to overwhelming critical and commercial success. They were followed by a trilogy of live-action movies adapting Tokien’s prequel The Hobbit between 2012 and 2014. In recent years, the Lord of the Rings franchise has picked up steam once more with the 2022 premiere of Prime Video’s The Rings of Power and the upcoming 2024 animated movie The War of the Rohirrim.
Per Deadline, the weekend’s domestic box office Top 10 has been rounded out by fantasy classics thanks to the Fathom Events re-release of the Lord of the Rings movies. The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers returned to theaters with 4K extended editions on June 8 and June 9, and are set to be followed by Return of the King on June 10, with the entire trilogy also running over the next two consecutive weekends. Fellowship landed at No. 8 with $2.44 million while Two Towers followed right behind at No. 9 with $1.9 million.
