The French box office for the week of September 30 to October 6, 2026, saw Heart of the Beast remain the top film, drawing 379,236 entries. This brought its total number of viewers since its release to 882,101, showing strong and sustained popularity. Notre Salut, a new film, came in second with 256,370 entries. It achieved the highest average number of viewers per screen for the week, with 720 entries per screen, a performance that broke the previous record for its distributor, Condor, which had been set by L'Ombre de Staline.
Verity followed in third place with 235,630 entries. Resident Evil, a long-running action series, stayed in fourth place with 185,485 entries, bringing its cumulative total to 807,033. This indicates that the film continues to attract audiences even after several weeks in theaters. Digger, a new movie starring Tom Cruise and Alejandro González Iñárritu, ranked fifth with 165,038 entries. Despite a large production budget estimated at $150 million, the film’s performance was lower than expected.
Garance came in sixth with 152,031 entries, continuing a decline of 29% from its first week. This suggests that initial interest in the film has not been sustained. Kraken, a horror film restricted to viewers over 16, attracted 104,000 entries, showing that the film’s target audience was somewhat engaged. Cars (Reprise), part of the 20th-anniversary celebration of the Pixar film Cars, drew 100,172 entries, indicating that nostalgia played a role in its performance.
Tombé du ciel was ninth with 85,957 entries, and Avengers Endgame Extended was tenth with 74,931 entries, despite being shown on 386 screens. The extended version of the popular superhero film had a relatively modest turnout, possibly due to audience fatigue or the availability of the original version on streaming platforms.
