Straight Outta Compton topped the box office for the second week in the row, earning $8 million. Horror squeal Sinister 2 ranked second, grossing $4.7 million. Despite being in it’s fourth week, Mission Impossible: Rouge Nation also topped Hitman Agent: 47, raking in $3.4 million. Tom Cruise’s newest movie is expected to outperform Sinister 2 by the end of the weekend.
The next Hitman game was annouced at this year’s E3 and will come to Xbox One, PS4, and PC. Hopefully performing better than it’s film brethren .
