Marvel Studios’ “Avengers: Endgame Encore” claimed the top spot at the mainland China box office during the Sept. 25–27 frame, grossing RMB83.8 million ($12.5 million) over the weekend, according to Artisan Gateway.

The Marvel epic’s cumulative lifetime haul in China is now $647.8 million.

Dirty Monkeys’ war comedy-drama “Once Upon a Time in the Middle East” moved to second place after a long run at the top, collecting $7.6 million in its seventh weekend. Directed by Wen Muye (“Dying to Survive”) and starring Shen Teng, Jiang Qiming, Aarif Rahman, and Omar Sherif, the late-summer hit has lifted its cume to $341.2 million since rolling out on August 11. The story follows a Chinese chef in a fictional Middle Eastern city who transforms his restaurant into a sanctuary for local orphans and civilians amid regional armed conflict.
