“Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga,” starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, claimed first place through Sunday with $25.6 million, but it is neck-and-neck with 'The Garfield Movie' in Monday projections.

Movie theaters are looking more and more like wastelands these days. Neither “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” nor “The Garfield Movie ” could save Memorial Day weekend, which is cruising toward a two-decade low. “Furiosa,” the Mad Max prequel starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, claimed the first place spot for the Friday-Sunday weekend with $25.6 million, according to studio estimates on Sunday. Warner Bros. is waiting until Monday to release its four-day estimates.

“Fury Road,” starring Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy, went on to gross nearly $380 million worldwide. This new origin story in which Taylor-Joy plays a younger version of Theron’s character had a lot of things going for it too, including strong reviews out of the just-wrapped Cannes Film Festival and a splashy international press tour with many buzzy premiere looks from Taylor-Joy.
