‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ scores another night at No. 1 as it rakes in over $28M to kick off weekend
It was more heroics for “Deadpool & Wolverine,” with the Marvel Studios flick remaining in the No. 1 box office spot on Friday, The Numbers reported.
In its second week in theaters, the “fantastic buddy comedy,” earned $28.3 million on Friday.
The comic-book movie made a staggering $205 million in its first weekend alone, slashing the opening record for R-rated films previously held by the first “Deadpool.” It secured a spot in the top 10 openings of all time.
“Trap,” starring Josh Hartnett, opened in second place Friday with $6.7 million in sales.
The Post gave the movie by M. Night Shyamalan two stars and called it “an awfully long sit,” despite its running time of only 105 minutes.
Disaster movie “Twisters” got blown down a rung from No. 2 last week to No. 3 this Friday, grossing $6.5 million. According to The Post, it’s “a reboot that’s actually worth your time.”
The animated juggernaut “Despicable Me 4” dropped down to fourth place from third last week, but still raked in $3.32 million. It has now topped $306 million worldwide in the month since it was released.
Rounding out the top five was the newly released “Harold and the Purple Crayon,” based on the beloved children’s book. The Sony release took in $2.4 million in its first day in the theaters.
