LOS ANGELES – It’s shaping up to be a merry holiday season for Jumanji: The Next Level.

Sony’s adventure sequel debuted in first place to US$60.1 million , dethroning Frozen 2 after three consecutive weeks as the US box office champ. Those ticket sales, at the higher end of industry projections, represent a healthy jump on its predecessor, 2017’s Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle . It also marks the highest debut for a December comedy, as well as the best start for a live-action movie for stars Kevin Hart and Jack Black.

Frozen 2 slid to second place, generating a solid US$19.2 million in its fourth weekend of release. The animated sequel crossed the US$1 billion mark globally, the sixth Disney movie to do so this year.
