'John Wick 3' beats 'Avengers: Endgame' at the weekend box office, netting $57 million in the U.S.

Studios on Sunday say “John Wick: Chapter 3 - Parabellum” has grossed an estimated $57 million in its opening weekend. Not only did it far exceed expectations, it's a franchise best that nearly doubled the opening of the second film, which itself doubled the opening of the first film from 2014.

“The marketplace was so dominated by 'John Wick,”' said Paul Dergarabedian, the senior media analyst for Comscore. “It's tough when one movie over performs by this kind of magnitude.” Most disappointing, however, is the young adult adaptation “The Sun Is Also a Star” which grossed only $2.6 million from over 2,000 screens and landed in eighth place. Although modestly budgeted at a reported $9 million, and featuring popular television actors such as “Riverdale's” Charles Melton and “grown-ish's” Yara Shahidi, the Warner Bros.-released film failed to connect even with the audiences who turned out, 75% of whom were women. It got a poor B- CinemaScore.

“As unpredictable and fickle as young adults are, so are the performances of films that target that audience,” Dergarabedian said.
