Sep 28, 2020 | 6:15 AM

The Robert Pattinson-toplined Tenet is topping the box office again, but these days, that’s nothing to brag about. It’s fourth weekend out saw $3.4 million in sales, bringing its 25-day haul to $41.2 million domestically, making it the lowest-chart-topping total for any film in almost 32 years.

As of now, about 75% of theaters are open, but some of the largest markets-including NYC and LA-remain shuttered. About 85% of Tenet‘s total $242M take comes from overseas.
