In an utterly unsurprising outcome, “A Quiet Place” conquered the US weekend box office.<\/p>\n

Per studio estimates, the critically acclaimed horror film will close its first weekend with $50.0 million in receipts. The figure will more than double that of the weekend’s #2 film.<\/p>\n

“Ready Player One,” that #2 film, added $25.0 million to its haul. Its cumulative gross now stands at $96.9 million.<\/p>\n

New comedy “Blockers” debuts at #3 with $21.4 million, while “Black Panther” grabs #4 with $8.4 million.<\/p>\n

Now credited with $665.4 million in cumulative receipts, “Black Panther” claims #3 on the all-time leaderboard. Only “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and “Avatar” have earned more at the US box office.<\/p>\n

“I Can Only Imagine” takes #5 on this weekend’s chart. It earned another $8.4 million, bringing its cumulative gross to an impressive $69.1 million.<\/p>\n

— In addition to “A Quiet Place” and “Blockers,” this weekend’s box office welcomed “Chappaquiddick” and “The Miracle Season.”<\/p>\n

The former debuts at #7 with $6.2 million from 1,560 screens. The latter grabs #10 with $4.1 million from just over 1700 theaters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cA Quiet Place\u201d made major noise in its first weekend. \u201cBlockers\u201d started solidly.","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"categories":[36,1050],"tags":[10801,10445,10800,10803,10690,10762,10804],"adace-sponsor":[],"yoast_head":"\n"A Quiet Place" Conquers US Weekend Box Office; "Blockers" Debuts At #3<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"In an utterly unsurprising outcome, "A Quiet Place" conquered the US weekend box office.
