Paramount's "Scream 7" has become the highest-grossing installment in the franchise with $176.9 million, surpassing the lifetime hauls of the original 1996 and 1997 sequels. The film, which is nominated for eight Academy Awards, also surpassed the $100 million mark on Oscar weekend. This success is attributed to nostalgia for Neve Campbell's return as Sidney Prescott and the popularity of the horror genre. In other films, Chloe Zhao's "Hamnet" has reached $100.6 million globally, including $75.2 million internationally and $24.1 million in North America. Disney and Pixar's "Hoppers" remained No. 1 at the international box office with $31 million in its second weekend.
