The animated children’s movie “GOAT” grossed $17 million in its second weekend in theaters to lead all films in North America, according to industry estimates released Sunday.
The film, produced by NBA star Stephen Curry and others, follows the story of Will (voiced by Caleb McLaughlin), an underdog goat who gets the chance to play “roarball,” a sport similar to basketball.
“Wuthering Heights” took in $14.2 million Friday through Sunday for second place, Comscore reported. Director Emerald Fennell’s version of Emily Bronte’s 1847 romance novel had opened in first place the prior week, just ahead of “GOAT.”
The faith-based drama “I Can Only Imagine 2” opened in third place with $8 million.
“Crime 101,” a heist film starring Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Halle Berry and Barry Keoghan, made $5.7 million in its second weekend for fourth place.
The survival thriller “Send Help” grossed another $4.5 million in its fourth weekend for fifth place.
The comedy “How to Make a Killing,” starring Glen Powell and Margaret Qualley, opened in sixth place with $3.5 million.
Seventh place went to “EPIC: Elvis Presley in Concert,” director Baz Luhrmann’s concert documentary that opened on a limited number of Imax screens and took in $3.2 million.
Rounding out the top 10 releases were “Solo Milo” ($2.5 million), “Zootopia 2” ($2.3 million) and “Avatar: Fire and Ash” ($1.8 million).
