LOS ANGELES — A robust audience turned out to catch “It: Chapter Two” in movie theatres this weekend, but not quite as big as the first.
Warner Bros. says Sunday that “It: Chapter Two” earned an estimated $91 million from North American ticket sales in its first weekend.
Trailing only its predecessor which debuted to a record $123.4 million in September 2017, the launch of “It: Chapter Two” is the second highest opening for a horror film and the month of September.
Based on Stephen King’s novel, “It: Chapter Two” brings the Losers Club back to Derry 27 years later to take on the demonic clown Pennywise. It was the only major film to open this weekend.
