The final film in the new Halloween trilogy, and the last to feature Jamie's Laurie or the iconic villain, Michael Myers, opened on top of the box office this weekend.

Halloween Ends debuted with a healthy $41.3 million at the box office, continuing horror's grip on ticket sales at the moment, thanks to the also currently booming Smile.

Jamie responded directly to the news with a screenshot of an article announcing the number alongside a photograph of herself holding a queen chess piece.

"Once in a while, it's fun to be Queen. Thank you to all the creators and fans that made this happen. I will tell you that it's a thrill to be almost 64 and to be headlining the number #1 movie in America in the third of David Gordon Green's @halloweenmovie THRILLOGY."
