“Jungle Cruise” leads at Vudu, which favors higher-priced titles with its revenue tally. Among transactional charts, iTunes has it as #3, with GooglePlay placing it at #5. “The Hitman’s Wife’s Bodyguard” (Lionsgate/$5.99) repeats at #1 at both iTunes and Google, and at #5 is the highest non-PVOD films at Vudu. All of this reinforces that Disney can maximize returns from multiple outlets even as films still do well in theaters. “Don’t Breathe 2” (Sony/$19.99), a surprise PVOD release after three weeks in theaters, is #2 at Vudu, #3 at iTunes, and #5 at GooglePlay. The film fell a modest 18 percent in theaters over the weekend at #6, a small drop possibly helped by new marketing for the PVOD release.

Long-running “Wrath of Man” (United Artists/$5.99), “Snake Eyes” (Paramount/$19.99), and “Respect” (United Artists/$19.99) round out the six films that made all the lists. “The Boss Baby: Family Business” (Universal/$19.99) made two charts to place #3 at both Vudu and iTunes. The animated sequel was the only other new entry this week. ©Netflix/Courtesy Everett Collection Leading at Netflix are four fresh titles this week, with their usual eclectic mix. #1 is an original title, “Afterlife of the Party,” a fantasy comedy about a bratty girl brought back to life to undo her bad deeds starring Victoria Justice. Its director is Stephen Herek (“Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” “Mr. Holland’s Opus”) and though set in America, shot in South Africa for Covid reasons. “Worth,” a Sundance 2020 premiere that Netflix acquired earlier this year, stars Michael Keaton as a lawyer fighting for 9/11 survivors. Amy Ryan and Stanley Tucci co-star in the film directed by Sara Colangelo (“The Kindergarten Teacher.”) In between are two vintage theatrical releases. Ryan Reynolds’ ongoing popularity is seen again with the 2011 “Green Lantern” at #2, with the 2008 comedy “Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins” starring Martin Lawrence at #3. Last week’s #1 “He’s All That” drops to #5. iTunes and Google Play rank films daily by number of transactions, irrespective of revenue accrued. These are the listings for September 6. Distributors listed are current rights owners.
