American sniper retains leadership at the box office
American Sniper, directed by Clint Eastwood, has shown truly incredible resilience at home. On its second weekend, the painting made another $ 64.3 million. Thus, compared to the premiere weekend, the box office fell by only 27.9 percent. Thus, the project's American fees exceeded $ 200 million. The movie earned another $ 47.5 million outside North America. With a production budget of just $ 58 million for American Sniper, its rolling success is no longer in doubt. The second place went to The Fan, which grossed $ 15 million in its first weekend. The third was the movie "The Adventures of Paddington" with a result of 12.3 million dollars. It is also worth noting the disastrous start of the movie "Mordecai", in which Johnny Depp played the main role. The picture earned 4.1 million dollars by the end of the premiere weekend, that is, significantly less than the most pessimistic forecasts promised it. The movie was able to take only ninth place in the American box office. The cost of the project is estimated at $ 60 million, so there can be no talk of any recoupment at home rental. It is possible that Mordecai will be in high demand outside of North America, where Depp is still very popular. The Topic of Article: American sniper retains leadership at the box office. |
