Despite growing concerns over the Delta variant, 'Jungle Cruise' still drew moviegoers out to theaters during the film's opening weekend to sail atop the North American box office.
LOS ANGELES -- Despite growing concerns over the delta variant, "Jungle Cruise" still drew moviegoers out to theaters during the film's opening weekend to sail atop the North American box office.
"Jungle Cruise" also earned five times more than "The Green Knight," which came in at No. 2 with $6.78 million. The A24 film starring Dev Patel barely edged M. Night Shyamalan's "Old," which had $6.76 million after scoring the top spot last weekend. Matt Damon's "Stillwater" opened at No. 5 with $5.1 million but faced criticism as well. The drama film was blasted by Amanda Knox, who spoke out last week about her name being associated with the new movie, saying any connection rips off her story with her consent at the "expense of my reputation."
