August 19, 2024, 6:15 pmNew sci-fi horror film Alien: Romulus topped the weekend box office in North American theaters, showing the franchise’s continued ability to scare up sizable audiences, analysts said Sunday.
That was “an excellent opening for a late-episode horror sequel,” said David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. That strong result finally dethroned Marvel’s superhero comedy Deadpool & Wolverine, which slipped to second, taking in $29 million in its fourth weekend out. Ryan Reynolds plays Deadpool with Hugh Jackman reprising his role as Wolverine.
Behind actor and producer Blake Lively, the film scored one of the best-ever openings for a romance film, despite a public spat between Lively and co-star and director Justin Baldoni.
