Julia Roberts and George Clooney-led rom-com, TicketToParadise, lands a strong domestic opening that pushes the film's global box office total past $96 million.
Ticket to Paradise, the Bali-set romantic comedy from Universal and Working Title, ended the weekend in second place on the box office charts and is on track to cross $80.26 million internationally for a cumulative total of $96.6 million globally.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Having been released in Australia on September 15, followed by the United Kingdom on September 20, it looks like a smart piece of counter-programming from Universal to place the film up against the superhero behemoth Black Adam which ended the weekend in the top spot. The movie opened in 3,543 North American theaters with an average take of $4,612 per theater.
Budgeted at $60 million, the film looks like another victory for director Ol Parker following the success of his previous directorial effort, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again which also skewed 35 and older, and passed $400 million at the worldwide box office.
