Weapons was released in the United States by Warner Bros. Pictures on August 8, 2025. The film received positive reviews and has grossed $167.5 million worldwide.
Plot
A child narrator explains that on a Wednesday two years prior, in the town of Maybrook, Pennsylvania, seventeen children from teacher Justine Gandy's third-grade class suddenly ran from their homes at 2:17 a.m. and disappeared. Only one student, Alex Lilly, remained.
Almost a month following the incident, Principal Marcus Miller places Justine on leave amid community suspicion of her involvement in the children's disappearance. Depressed and ostracized, she relapses into alcoholism and seeks comfort from her ex-boyfriend, police officer Paul Morgan. Concerned about Alex's wellbeing, Justine follows him home, where she observes the windows covered with newspaper and Alex's parents are sitting motionless in the dark, and urges Marcus to perform a wellness check. Justine revisits Alex's house but falls asleep in her car. During the night, someone staggers out of the house, enters the car, and cuts off a lock of Justine's hair.
Archer Graff, father of missing child Matthew, starts his own investigation when he grows frustrated by the police's slow progress. Observing security cam footage of Matthew and another child, he discovers that the direction the children were running in converges at a specific destination, but is unable to pinpoint it. Both Justine and Archer dream of the missing children and a mysterious woman with clown-like makeup.
While on patrol, Paul arrests James, a vagrant drug addict, for attemped burglary, but is forced to let him go after assaulting him in view of his car's camera. Later, James begins to burgle Alex's house, where he finds Alex's parents and the missing children in the basement in a catatonic condition. He reports his findings to the police in hopes of getting the $50,000 reward, but Paul, fearing being reported, spots and chases him. James flees into the woods, passing the mysterious woman, and hides in his tent. Upon being caught by Paul, James explains that he knows where the missing children are. Paul drives to Alex's house, leaving James handcuffed in the car while he investigates. Hours later, Paul emerges and drags James inside the house.
Marcus is visited at school by the mysterious woman: Gladys, Alex's eccentric aunt and the family's caretaker after Alex's parents fell ill. Marcus insists on meeting Alex's parents for the wellness check. Later, Gladys appears at the home of Marcus and his husband Terry. She crafts a talisman with a ribbon stolen from Marcus and hair cut from Terry and Justine, enchanting Marcus. Gladys forces him to kill Terry and pursue Justine. Marcus sprints across town and assaults Justine at a gas station, interrupting an argument between her and Archer, before being fatally struck by a car. At the hospital, Archer shows the results of his investigation to Justine, who realizes that the children were all running toward Alex's house.
It is revealed that Gladys is a witch who can enchant victims and either drain their energy to rejuvenate herself or command them as weapons to kill for her. After enchanting Alex's parents and threatening their lives, Gladys ordered Alex to keep her secret and bring home personal items from his classmates. She used these items in a spell to draw the children to Alex's house, before keeping them in the basement to feed on their life force.
Justine and Archer enter Alex's house, where they are attacked by the enchanted Paul and James before Justine takes Paul's gun and fatally shoots them both. Archer looks for Matthew in the basement, but Gladys enchants him and sends him to attack Justine. Meanwhile, Alex evades his bewitched parents and copies Gladys' spell with a strand of hair from her wig. The children emerge from the basement, chase Gladys out of the house and around the neighborhood, and tear her apart. Her death frees her victims, though all but Archer remain catatonic.
The narrator explains that Alex moved out of town to live with a different aunt after his parents were institutionalized. The children were all reunited with their parents, and some have regained the ability to speak.

Production

Development
After the financial and critical success of his film Barbarian (2022), Zach Cregger began work on a new spec script titled Weapons. It has been described as a "horror epic" with a more "personal story" for the filmmaker, partly inspired by Paul Thomas Anderson's film Magnolia (1999) and Jennifer Egan's novel A Visit from the Goon Squad.[5][6] Cregger was inspired to write the screenplay after the death of his close friend and collaborator, Trevor Moore.[7][8] The screenplay entered the market on January 22, 2023, and prompted a bidding war among Netflix, New Line Cinema, TriStar Pictures and Universal Pictures.[9][10]
According to Cregger, the script was given through the software app Embershot to the studios on January 23, 2023, at 8:00 a.m., and by 9:30 a.m., Michael De Luca, CEO of Warner Bros. Pictures, contacted him to close the deal.[6] New Line secured the rights within 24 hours after offering $38 million to cover all costs, including production and salaries, with Cregger receiving $10 million as writer, director, and producer and final cut privilege (pending test screening reactions to the film) in addition to a guaranteed theatrical release.[9] Universal offered $7 million less than Warner Brothers.[11] Jordan Peele, whose company Monkeypaw Productions participated in the bidding war in conjunction with Universal, parted ways with longtime managers Joel Zadak and Peter Principato, the latter of whom was also Cregger's manager, after losing the auction.[12]
Cregger's CAA agent, Joe Mann, negotiated a $10 million upfront fee, of which Cregger deferred $2 million in return for 50 backend points on the movie.[13]
Casting
Between May and July 2023, Pedro Pascal, Renate Reinsve, Brian Tyree Henry, Austin Abrams, Tom Burke, and June Diane Raphael were cast in the film.[14][15][16] However, as a result of production delays and the 2023 Hollywood labor disputes, Pascal, Reinsve, Henry, and Burke had to drop out of the film due to scheduling conflicts;[17] Pascal, in particular, had to exit the film for running against his commitment with the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) film The Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025).
In February 2024, Josh Brolin joined the cast to replace Pascal.[18] In April, Julia Garner (replacing Reinsve) and Alden Ehrenreich (replacing Burke) joined the cast.[19][20] In May, Benedict Wong (replacing Henry), Amy Madigan and Cary Christopher were announced to have joined the cast.[21][22]
According to Cregger, Madigan "saved" the movie. When discussing the character, he stated that he gave her two options as to Gladys' origin: one where she was a regular person using witchcraft to prevent her dying from an incurable condition, and one where she was instead an immortal creature performing an approximate simulacrum of a human being, but that he did not ask her which one she chose.[23]
Filming
Principal photography took place in Atlanta in May 2024.[19] Filming wrapped in July 2024.[24] The Maybrook Elementary School was set in Tucker, Georgia.[24] According to Time Out, on the busiest days of filming, the production would be home to more than 170 children. Child labor coordinators were enlisted to keep the kids engaged when not filming.[24] The gas station scenes were filmed over the course of three days at a BP gas station and convenience store in Covington, Georgia.[24]
Music
The soundtrack to Weapons was released by WaterTower Music on August 1, 2025. The soundtrack contains 36 tracks composed by Ryan Holladay, Hays Holladay, and the director Zach Cregger.[25][26] Additionally, the opening sequence of the film features the song "Beware of Darkness" by George Harrison[26][27] and the end credits feature the song "Under the Porch" by MGMT.

Reception
Box office
As of August 20, 2025, Weapons has grossed $97.9 million in the United States and Canada, and $69.6 million in other territories, for a worldwide total of $167.5 million.[3][4]
In the United States and Canada, Weapons was released alongside Freakier Friday and Sketch, was initially projected to gross $25–40 million from 3,200 theaters in its opening weekend.[11][2] It grossed $5.7 million in Thursday previews.[31][32] After grossing 18.2 million in its Friday box office, including from Thursday previews, the film was projected to gross $40–43 million in its opening weekend.[33] It went on to debut to $43.5 million, topping the box office and setting a new record for Warner Bros. as the first studio in history to have six consecutive films open at #1 with more than $40 million.[34][35] The film dropped only 43% the sophomore weekend, grossing $25 million.[36]
Critical response
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 94% of 332 critics' reviews are positive. The website's consensus reads: "Zach Cregger spins an expertly crafted yarn of terrifying mystery and thrilling intrigue in Weapons, a sophomore triumph that solidifies his status as a master of horror."[37] Metacritic, which uses a weighted average, assigned the film a score of 81 out of 100, based on 46 critics, indicating "universal acclaim".[38] Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A−" on an A+ to F scale, while those surveyed by PostTrak gave it an average 4 out of 5 stars, with 65% saying they would "definitely recommend" it.[39][33]
Empire's John Nugent gave the film a perfect 5 stars out of 5 rating, and wrote, "The entire film, in fact, is something that shouldn't work, but does. Can a film about missing children and grief be called a crowd-pleaser? In Zach Cregger's hands, it feels almost effortless."[40] Brian Tallerico of RogerEbert.com gave the film 3.5 stars out of 4, calling it superior follow-up to Barbarian while stating, "One of the greatest strengths of Cregger's ambitious script is its abject refusal to connect every dot in the manner that so much 'elevated horror' has done in recent years. Still, it's not overly difficult to read the inciting incident of Weapons as a school shooting allegory."[41] Variety's Peter Debruge praised the film, and wrote, "Regardless of how you feel about the bittersweet ending (and many will happily embrace the movie's darkly comic bittersweet finale), Cregger has achieved something remarkable here, crafting a cruel and twisted bedtime story of the sort the Brothers Grimm might have spun—not the kid-friendly Disney version, mind you, but the kind where characters kill on command and audiences find it difficult to sleep afterward."[42] Tim Grierson of Screen Daily noted that "Cregger does terrific work answering the riddles he has teased throughout the runtime" while further stating, "Weapons gracefully balances its different tensions, all of them cathartically released during the superbly orchestrated, graphically violent final 20 minutes."[43] Charles Pulliam-Moore of The Verge praised the film's themes, writing: "one of Weapons' more impressive feats is the way it builds on that contentious dynamic to make a point about how communities often conjure up convenient boogeymen to blame, rather than confronting the things that actually endanger children."[44]
Tom Jorgensen of IGN gave the film score of 9 out of 10 and wrote, "Weapons is a righteous, fully actualized genre-bender in which writer-director Zach Cregger hones Barbarian's blend of unbearable tension and dark humor to a new level of razor-sharpness."[45] Mark Kennedy of Associated Press awarded the film with 4.5 stars out of 5, and wrote, "If Barbarian came out of left field three years ago and heralded an exciting new voice in filmmaking, Weapons doesn't disappoint but it doesn't have the advantage of surprise."[46]
William Bibbiani of TheWrap gave a less positive review, finding the film's resolution "a lot less frightening, and a lot more contrived, than it would have had [Cregger] not invited us to ponder more powerful possibilities for over an hour before tipping his hand." He nevertheless praised the cast, particularly Brolin and Garner, for doing "difficult, layered work", and the cinematography for "find[ing] the eeriest camera angle in damn near every scene, whether it's overtly shocking or insidiously banal."[47]
Accolades
On June 30, 2025, the film was nominated for the Astra Midseason Movie Award for Most Anticipated Film at the 8th Astra Midseason Movie Awards.[48]
Future
Cregger discussed a potential sequel to Weapons in an interview with Variety, saying, "I have another idea for something in this world that I'm kind of excited about. I'm not going to do it next, and I probably won't do it after my next movie, but I do have one and I'd like to see it on the screen one day."[49]
