“Sing 2” (Universal/$24.99) is still the #3 film in theaters this weekend and placed #1 at iTunes, Google Play, and Vudu. “Ghostbusters: Aftermath” (Sony/$19.99) took second place at all three. Marvel Studios

The charts showed little variance, with 15 titles total on the three lists and a record seven films making all three charts. Two new films, both $19.99 PVOD releases debuted: “Eternals” (Disney) arrived 10 weeks after it opened in theaters; Disney+ subscribers can stream it for free. The delayed release and parallel option is likely why the film ranks no higher than #3.

Also new is “A Journal for Jordan” (Sony), directed by Denzel Washington and starring Michael B. Jordan. This came out on PVOD after only three weekends (and $6 million gross), a first for Sony since theaters reopened. The quick turnaround makes sense and suggests that the option exists for studios that don’t have negotiated strategies, like Universal. “No Time to Die” (United Artists/$5.99), “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” (Sony/$5.99), “Free Guy” (Disney/$5.99), and “Dune” (Warner Bros./$19.99) complete the lineup. “Dune” is notable for its long run; it is available only now for a standard PVOD cost. Even more impressive is it initially streamed on HBO Max free for its subscribers. Unlike the last week, when the  #1 “Don’t Look Up” was the sole Netflix original in its top 10, this week sees three homegrown titles dominate. After 18 days on top, Adam McKay’s all-star ensemble comedy is still #2. The film that replaced it? “Brazen,” a Canadian-made Nora Roberts adaptation starring Alyssa Milano as a mystery writer investigating the murder of her webcam-performer sister. At #4 is “Riverdance: The Animated Musical.” Although made independently and previously shown in the U.K. and elsewhere, it is a domestic exclusive for Netflix. It includes Pierce Brosnan among the voice actors. Also in the Netflix mix is Paul Thomas Anderson’s “Phantom Thread.” His 2017 critically acclaimed film, Daniel Day-Lewis’ final film before retiring, comes in at #7.
