Put on a happy face: Warner Bros.' 'Joker' returns to the top of the US box office charts, narrowly defeating Disney's 'Maleficent: Mistress of Evil'
David Glasser, the former COO of The Weinstein Company, released the film through his 101 Studios banner. "The Current War" earned a dismal $2.7 million from 1,022 screens, marking one of the lowest openings for a nationwide release.
Another awards contender that continues to impress is Neon's "Parasite," a dark social satire from director Bong Joon ho. In its third frame, "Parasite" made $1.8 million from just 189 theaters, averaging a strong $14,107 per location. To date, the movie has earned $4.1 million in North America. Warner Bros. also unveiled the Bruce Springsteen concert film "Western Stars" in 532 theaters. Despite positive reviews, the documentary failed to crack the top 20, opening to $560,000. Combined with Fathom Events' preview screenings, "Western Stars" has made $1 million.
Also in limited release, Saban Films and Kevin Smith's "Jay & Silent Bob Reboot" pulled in $219,397 from 17 screens for a domestic tally of $1.5 million. MGM's animated comedy "The Addams Family" came in third place with $11.7 million, boosting its domestic tally to $72.8 million and $83.9 million globally. In fourth, Sony's "Zombieland: Double Tap" brought in $11.6 million for a North American haul of $47 million.
