Melania Trump Documentary Cracks Amazon’s High 10 Field Workplace Chart, Even Although It is Nonetheless Far From Success

Melania has landed on a significant field workplace chart.

The Melania Trump documentary debuted final weekend with $7.2 million, which marked one of the best home debut for a non-music documentary in 10 years. The fiercely divisive venture has a Verified Sizzling Popcornmeter rating from customers on Rotten Tomatoes, however critics gave it a dismal 8% whereas its 1.3 IMDb rating sees it tying with Foodfight! and Kirk Cameron’s Saving Christmas as the second-lowest-rated motion pictures on the platform.

Per Deadline, as of Saturday morning, Melania is projected to finish its sophomore weekend by hitting a 3-day complete of $3.5 million, which sees it dropping 51% from its debut. It will push its cumulative home complete to $14.5 million, permitting it to surge previous Saltburn ($11.4 million) and Sarah’s Oil ($11.7 million) to land at No. 10 on Amazon MGM Studios’ chart of their High 10 home releases of all time.

This isn’t sudden, as a result of Amazon MGM Studios is a brand new firm that formally took on its present kind in October 2023. Subsequently, practically half of their High 10 is made up of titles from 2025 and 2026. Under, see the corporate’s High 10 motion pictures on the time of writing:

In the end, it appears extremely doubtless that Melania might be bumped again off of the High 10 by any variety of upcoming Amazon MGM Studios titles, together with the Chris Hemsworth crime film Crime 101 (due February 13), the Ryan Gosling sci-fi film Mission Hail Mary (March 20), the live-action reboot Masters of the Universe (June 5), and the motion sequel The Beekeeper 2 (January 15, 2027).

Moreover, some profitable Amazon MGM Studios titles are usually not current within the High 10 as a result of they had been Prime Video streaming titles that by no means obtained a theatrical launch. This contains the Alan Ritchson and Kevin James motion comedy Playdate, which debuted at No. 1 on the platform in late 2025.

Touchdown on this High 10 chart doesn’t imply that Melania is anyplace near turning a revenue. The venture was unusually costly for a documentary, as Amazon reportedly spent $40 million on distribution rights and $35 million on advertising and marketing. The reported break-even level for the Amazon documentary is someplace between $40 and $45 million, which it appears unlikely to ever attain in theaters.
