Jamie Foxx and Cameron Diaz proved a dream team in the spy flick Back in Action, which debuted at No. 1 on the Top 10 English Film list with 46.8 million views. It’s the most views in a premiere weekend for an English-language movie since The Adam Project arrived in March 2022. Since its Jan. 17 debut, Back in Action has made its mark as a crowd-pleaser: it reached No. 1 in 85 countries, which is the most for an English-language movie since 2023’s Extraction 2, and landed in the Top 10 in 93 countries.

Fans couldn’t get enough of Diaz in action, propelling 2010’s Knight and Day to No. 4 on the English Film list with 5.2 million views. Meanwhile, Carry-On made a smooth landing at No. 5 with 3.6 million views. The airport thriller, starring Taron Egerton, Sofia Carson, and Jason Bateman, has now secured the No. 3 spot on the Most Popular English Films list with 160.1 million views. And the hits kept coming, with yet another original action flick, France’s Ad Vitam, retaining its No. 1 spot for a second week in non-English Film with 25.5 million views.

And fans geared up for The Night Agent Season 2 — premiering on Jan. 23 — by debriefing with Season 1 (No. 7, 2.4 million views).  

Squid Game continued to dominate non-English TV: Season 2 hit its fourth consecutive week at No. 1 with 13.2 million views, while Season 1 landed at No. 5 with 5 million views. Other big wins included the hit anime series SAKAMOTO DAYS, which debuted at No. 2 on the non-English TV chart with 8.6 million views, the Swedish limited series The Breakthrough, which broke through at No. 3 in its second week with 6.9 million views, and the Colombian thriller Fake Profile: Killer Match, which proved to be the real deal at No. 4 with 5.1 million views. Fake Profile Season 1 ranked at No. 7 with 2.9 million views.
