LOS ANGELES – BTS member Jungkook’s film, “Jung Kook: I Am Still,” has landed in the Top 10 at the box office in North America, according to industry estimates released Sunday.
Through exclusive, unseen interviews and behind-the-scenes footage, alongside electrifying concert performances, this brand new film showcases Jung Kook’s journey, capturing his unwavering dedication and growth.
Jung Kook shares his remarkable rise to fame and heartfelt moments with the BTS fanbase ARMY around the world in “Jung Kook: I Am Still.”
Meanwhile, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” scored a surprise win at the box office in its third weekend, grossing $26 million to edge out the opening of “Transformers One.”
“Transformers One” grossed $25 million at theaters in the United States and Canada, Comscore reported. The latest installment of the franchise about shape-shifting robots is fully animated, and its opening week total suggests that it will fall below the blockbuster grosses of its live-action
predecessors.
The horror film “Speak No Evil” was third with $5.9 million Friday through Sunday in its second weekend.
Fourth place went to the thriller “Never Let Go,” which opened with $4.5 million, followed by “Deadpool & Wolverine” with $3.9 million in its ninth weekend.
Rounding out the top 10 domestic releases were “The Substance” ($3.1 million), “Am I Racist?” ($2.5 million), “Reagan” ($1.6 million), “Jung Kook: I Am Still” ($1.4 million) and “Alien: Romulus” ($1.3 million).
“Transformers One” is the untold origin story of Optimus Prime and Megatron, better known as sworn enemies, but once were friends bonded like brothers, who changed the fate of Cybertron forever.

In the first-ever fully CG-animated Transformers movie, “Transformers One” features a star-studded voice cast, including Chris Hemsworth, Brian Tyree Henry, Scarlett Johansson, Keegan-Michael Key, Steve Buscemi with Laurence Fishburne and Jon Hamm.
The story by Andrew Barrer and Gabriel Ferrari is basically the Bible’s Cain and Abel with a detour into the Roman Empire and the Hasbro figurines’ accumulated mythology, which seems to be a series of never-ending epic battles between good and evil.
