Top trending movies on IMDb: August 25, 2026

The Odyssey (2026) still leads IMDb MOVIEmeter on August 25, 2026, with Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026) at #2, the same order as August 24. Variety put Brand New Day's fourth weekend at $39 million, about $855 million domestic and $2.22 billion worldwide. Manila Bulletin said The Odyssey's sixth weekend took about $19.5 million, with a domestic total near $539 million, calling it Christopher Nolan's highest-grossing title.

  1. The Odyssey (2026)

    Nolan's film holds #1. Rank is unchanged from August 24. Box-office recaps dated August 24 put the latest weekend near $19.5 million and the domestic cume near $539.1 million. Interest meter and weekend gross are not the same chart, but the title is still the MOVIEmeter lead.

  2. Spider-Man: Brand New Day (2026)

    Holds #2. Variety said the fourth weekend was $39 million from 4,006 theaters, a 45% decline from the prior frame, with $854.9 million domestic. Worldwide sits near $2.22 billion, behind Avatar and Avengers: Endgame on that all-time list.

  3. The End of Oak Street (2026)

    Holds #3. Weekend estimates put it around $9.0 million for the latest frame and about $37.9 million cume. Rank is unchanged.

  4. Mutiny (2026)

    Holds #4. Variety identified the Jason Statham action title among the weekend newcomers. Estimates put the opening near $7.5 million. Rank is unchanged from August 24.

  5. Insidious: Out of the Further (2026)

    Holds #5. Deadline dated a $25.3 million domestic opening and $60.3 million worldwide after the August 21 release. Variety put the budget at $18 million. Rank is unchanged even as Google Trends now files the same movie as "insidious 6" at #10.

  6. Obsession (2025)

    Holds #6. The 2025-dated title remains on the 2026 MOVIEmeter board. Rank is unchanged. No widely reported 2026 re-release note was attached at fetch time.

  7. The Last House (2026)

    Holds #7. Rank is unchanged. No weekend gross was in the August 24 top-10 box-office tables used for the theatrical leaders.

  8. The Invite (2026)

    Holds #8. Rank is unchanged. Same thin box-office mention as The Last House.

  9. Don't Say Good Luck (2026)

    Holds #9. Rank is unchanged.

  10. Facing El Chapo (2026)

    Holds #10. Rank is unchanged. No widely reported premiere date beyond the 2026 tag was required to explain the hold.

What today's IMDb titles reveal

MOVIEmeter is lagging the box-office story. Spider-Man is still the weekend #1 in theaters and only #2 on this board. Insidious opened to $25.3 million and sits at #5 here. The Odyssey leads page interest after six weeks even as it takes third at the domestic weekend table.
