British movie fans led the way with a $7.1m (£5.4m) UK box office take for Tenet, the first Hollywood blockbuster to be released in cinemas since the lockdown in March.
Christopher Nolan’s Tenet has taken more than $50m at the box office on its opening weekend as movie fans shrugged off the coronavirus pandemic, donned face masks and headed back to big screens.
It is the biggest box office take for a film in the UK in seven months, since Sam Mendes’s 1917 in January.
An enthusiastic, mask-wearing Tom Cruise was among the fans to catch a screening of Tenet in London.
