It’s like the old saying goes, the sixth time is the charm. Or, at least it seems to be for the Final Destination movie series. The marketing blitz ahead of the Friday, May 16, 2025, premiere of Final Destination: Bloodlines generated plenty of buzz around the movie.

“Final Destination: Bloodlines” opened in 3,523 locations riding in on a wave of strong reviews (93% on Rotten Tomatoes) and viral marketing tactics, including a picture of logs on the back of trucks — a callback to one of the more infamous “Final Destination” death traps.

After ending a box office drought with “A Minecraft Movie” and “Sinners,” Warner Bros. continued its recent hot streak this weekend with New Line’s “Final Destination: Bloodlines,” which earned an excellent $51 million opening weekend from 3,523 theaters.
