Five new movies opened in wide release in North American theaters this weekend. 

And yet it's likely going to be the lowest-grossing of the year to date. 

According to studio estimates Sunday, the Jack Quaid action-comedy "Novocaine" took first place with $8.7 million. 

"Mickey 17" and the new Steven Soderbergh spy-thriller "Black Bag" were neck and neck for second and third place with both reporting $7.5 million weekends. 

Fourth place went to "Captain America: Brave New World" in its fifth weekend. 

"The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie" rounded out the top five.
