TheLostCity knocks TheBatman out of the top slot at the box office with $11.5 million opening.
It's a three-pronged victory for The Lost City at the box office this weekend. The film marks not just a pandemic-best debut for a female-driven title but also a back-to-back hit for Channing Tatum and the third hit of the year for Paramount. The film is poised to make $30.5 million in its first weekend, dethroning The Batman from the number one spot after three weeks.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY As for Paramount, the studio has bounced back after being essentially written off in the last few years. Having experienced a leadership change, Paramount has seen substantial success in the theatrical marketplace, with films such as A Quiet Place Part II, Scream, and Jackass Forever.Overall, the marketplace stands at a little over $81 million this weekend, down 45% from the same weekend in 2019, when Jordan Peele's Us propelled the business to $148.8 million.
Another major highlight this weekend comes in the form of Indian Telugu language epic RRR, which is expected to finish at the number three spot. The film is estimated to make $11.8 million in its first weekend, breaking director SS Rajamouli's own record for the biggest stateside debut for an Indian film. The record was previously held by Rajamouli's 2017 action spectacle Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, which opened to $10.4 million and tapped out with over $20 million. Starring Jr.
Elsewhere, the Daniels' martial arts fantasy Everything Everywhere All at Once made $203,000 on Friday from 10 theaters for a solid $20,000 per-screen average.
