Awards contender The Front Runner arrives in muted $56,000 from four venues.
An impressive estimated $66m North American debut saw Universal and Illumination Entertainment’s family feature The Grinch snatch top spot from Fox’s Bohemian Rhapsody as the Fox hit crossed $100m in its second weekend.
The Grinch opened in 4,141 theatres. Benedict Cumberbatch voices the curmudgeonly creation from the Dr. Seuss children’s books, which also features Rashida Jones, youngster Cameron Seely, and narrator Pharrell Williams. By way of comparison, How The Grinch Stole Christmas voiced by Jim Carrey opened on $55m in November 2000, which adjusts for inflation to $79.9m.
