Forget Pacific Rim Uprising and Ready Player One, both blockbusters have been blown out of the water at the North American box office as A Quiet Place debuts to $50 million.
The huge weekend marks the second-best three-day bow of any movie this year in the United States, only behind Black Panther’s record breaking $202 million.
Other new openers include Blockers, the Leslie Mann and John Cena-starring, Seth Rogan-produced movie that took $21.4 million, the highest-grossing weekend of an R-Rated comedy since Girls Trip’s $31 million debut.
Meanwhile, Black Panther has continued to make millions, now with a domestic total of $665.4 million – beating Titanic’s total – and making $1.3 billion globally.
