"Ballerina," a spinoff in the "John Wick" universe, opened behind expectations and below "Lilo & Stitch" on box office charts.

With Ballerina and Lilo & Stitch making a mark at the box office, their openings and staying power are drawing attention across the industry. While Ballerina starts ahead of the first John Wick, it falls short of later franchise entries. Meanwhile, Lilo & Stitch continues to dominate, crossing $335 million domestically.

In the box office showdown between a deadly assassin and a chaotic CG alien, “Lilo & Stitch” still had the edge.
