Uncharted Movie Has Big Second Weekend, Stays No. 1, But Batman Is Coming
Sony's Uncharted movie remained the No. 1 film in America for its second weekend, reaching $23.2 million for its second weekend in the US. It fell only 47% from its huge opening-weekend performance.
In total, the Uncharted movie has now passed $83 million domestically. The film opened earlier in international markets, and has now made $226 million globally--and that's before it arrives in China next month. These box office numbers come from Collider.
