LOS ANGELES (CelebrityAccess) — Universal's hit Fate Of The Furious ruled the weekend box office for the second week in a row, adding an impressive $202.1M to its cumulative take worldwide over the weekend.
Starring Vin Diesel, the 9th installment of the car-themed heist movie performed strongly in international markets, with just $38.7M of its weekend box office revenue coming from North America.
Meanwhile, two newcomers to theaters, The Promise (Open Road) and Unforgettable (Warner Bros.) proved to be bombs on their major opening weekends. Unforgettable, a domestic thriller starring Katherine Heigl and Rosario Dawson failed to resonate with audiences, earning just $6.5M worldwide, and 4.8m domestically. Even that was better than the historical drama The Promise, which generated $4.1M in revenue over the weekend.
