Star Trek Gets Even Bigger!
Paramount Pictures
Now, that's how you live long and prosper.
A bigger-than-expected Sunday box office delivered Star Trek a $75.2 million opening weekend, per final numbers today from Exhibitor Relations. That gross is nearly $3 million greater than the weekend estimate of $72.5 million.
The retooled Trek's four-day, Thursday-Sunday haul now stands at just under $80 million, or $79.2 million, to be tricorder precise.
Figured on making about $18 million on Sunday, Trek ended up with about $21 million instead.
Two weekends ago, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, which picked up about as many bad reviews as Trek picked up good ones, felt the sting of the final numbers when its projections came up $2 million shy of reality.
