'Black Adam,' Dwayne Johnson's bid to launch a new DC Films superpower, has surpassed $300 million globally in three weeks of release.
While not as robust as the openings of Crunchyroll's"Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero, which garnered, $21.1 million in August, or Funimation's"Jujutsu Kaisen 0: The Movie," which earned $18 million in March,"Red" again showed that anime is proving an uncommonly dependable draw in North American theaters. The 15th film in the franchise but the first to be released widely in the U.S.
Third place went to"Ticket to Paradise," the George Clooney and Julia Roberts romantic comedy. The Universal Pictures release collected $8.5 million in its third weekend, bringing the $60 million-budgeted rom-com's cumulative total to $46.7 million domestically and $137.2 million worldwide. For a genre that's struggled in theaters in recent years,"Ticket to Paradise" is showing staying power, especially as the favored choice for older audiences.
Even with Halloween coming and going, Paramount Pictures'"Smile" also continued to hold well in theaters. In its sixth week of release, the horror flick added another $4 million to bring it to $99.1 million overall.
