‘Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy’ Dominates for Third Week as ‘Last Showgirl’ and ‘Attack on Titan’ Debut Strong at U.K. and Ireland Box Office


Universal’s 'Bridget Jones: Mad About The Boy' continued its reign at the U.K. and Ireland box office, pulling in $5.2 million in its third weekend.

Directed by Gia Coppola and starring Pamela Anderson, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Dave Bautista, the drama about a former Vegas showgirl found a decent opening, appealing to audiences looking for a character-driven story. Rounding out the top 10, CinemaLive’s event release “Jesus Christ Superstar: Live Arena Tour,” the concert film adaptation of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s classic rock opera, debuted with $244,486. Dogwoof is releasing documentaries “Ernest Cole: Lost and Found,” about the first Black freelance photographer in apartheid South Africa and “Antidote,” where whistleblowers and activists risk their lives exposing Vladimir Putin’s authoritarian regime.
