“Invincible” leads U.S. holiday box office
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – Walt Disney Pictures’ feel-good football movie “Invincible” led the North American holiday box office for a second weekend, ahead of new releases “Crank” and “Wicker Man,” according to studio estimates issued on Sunday.
Because of the Labour Day holiday, data were sketchy. The studios will issue a fuller picture on Monday, and final ticket sales on Tuesday.
“Invincible,” starring Mark Wahlberg in a true-life story about an underdog football player, sold about $11.9 million worth of tickets in the three days beginning Friday, said Disney. Its 10-day total stands at $34.5 million.
“Crank,” starring English actor Jason Statham as a professional killer in a fight for survival, opened at No. 2, according to some rival studios, although figures were not available from the film’s distributor, Lionsgate.
Warner Bros. Pictures’ remake of the cult British thriller “The Wicker Man,” this time starring Nicolas Cage as a cop investigating a girl’s disappearance in a mysterious community, opened at No. 3 with $9.6 million.
