The sci-fi horror film "Alien: Romulus", a new installment in the "Alien" franchise, scored an impressive opening weekend and knocked "Deadpool & Wolverine" out of first place in its fourth frame. While no other new releases made it into the Top 10, the 2009 animated film "Coraline" was re-released in theaters for its 15th anniversary and delivered one of the stronger box-office performances of the week.
Read more about the weekend box-office after the jump.
"Alien: Romulus" opened in first place with $42 million from 3,885 theaters, a decent start for an R-rated horror film and the second-best debut in the franchise, above "AVP: Alien Vs. Predator" ($38.2 million in 2004), and behind "Prometheus" ($51 million in 2012). It also raked in $68 million internationally, which adds up to a $110 million global debut.
