Will Harley Quinn keep her promises? Birds of Prey , a film inspired by the DC Comics universe with Margot Robbie at the head of the poster, has taken for its exit the head of the North American box office, according to provisional figures published Sunday by the specialized company Exhibitor Relations.
Titled, in its long version, Birds of Prey and the fantastical story of Harley Quinn , this spin-off of Suicide Squad (2016) raised $ 33.3 million from Friday to Sunday in the dark rooms of the United States and Canada. A relatively disappointing start, however, for a superhero film. As the CNN website reports, Bird of Prey was expected to be around $ 45 million.
In front of "Bad Boys for Life"
Colorful, the fim is interested in Harley Quinn, who wants to take advantage of his new freedom after leaving his boyfriend the Joker, struggling with the evil Black Mask / Roman Sionis, interpreted by Ewan McGregor. Despite disappointing results, the film by young Sino-American director Cathy Yan dethrones the Bad Boys Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, the third installment in the famous police saga tinged with humor, which garnered $ 12 million in three days.
The two films could no doubt have hoped for better if the Oscars, of which he is the big favorite on Sunday, had not given a second wind to 1917 . British spectacular Sam Mendes' war film, built as a single sequence shot, added $ 9 million to his earnings while the red carpet was rolled out in Hollywood.
“Jumanji: next level” continues on its way
At the foot of the podium, with his $ 6.7 million this weekend, is Le Voyage du Dr. Dolittle , the story of this veterinarian capable of communicating with animals, embodied in this version by Robert Downey Jr.
Fifth, Jumanji: next level is approaching, thanks to an additional $ 5.5 million, the 300 million dollar mark in North America since it was released there more than two months ago.
