Avengers top of the charts despite Depp’s release
EVEN A-list star Johnny Depp was no match for The Avengers at the weekend box office, as the superhero adventure again dominated ticket sales and flew past the $US1 billion mark worldwide.
After its $US207.4 million debut broke the record for the biggest opening – not adjusting for inflation – The Avengers raked in another $US103.2 million in its second weekend in the US, an estimate from distributor Walt Disney Pictures reveals.
The film sucked the life out Dark Shadows, leaving Depp’s vampire comedy looking pallid with a lacklustre $US28.8 million opening weekend.
surpassing $US1 billion in global ticket sales after just 19 days in release.
With so many moviegoers still rushing out to see The Avengers, Depp didn’t get as much love as usual at the box office.
Even distributor Warner Bros thought the Tim Burton-directed film would open with at least $US35 million.
