Disney Wins Over a Historically Awful Weekend at the Box Office
It was a historically poor weekend at the U.S. box office as Americans practiced social distancing to limit the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus. The top 10 movies combined for roughly $50 million of revenue, which was the lowest sales haul in more than two decades, according to Box Office Mojo.

The animated film Onward, from Disney's (NYSE: DIS) Pixar studio, stayed in first place during its second weekend at theaters. However, ticket sales dove 73% from the prior period, reflecting drastic changes in consumer tastes for events that draw large groups of people.
