Joker Continue To Dominate Box Office

Hollywoodreporter.com: Todd Phillips' Joker continues to laugh hard at the box office, where it's headed for a huge second weekend of $60 million, well ahead of expectations.

The Warner Bros. origin pic, starring Joaquin Phoenix, grossed $17 million on Friday for a domestic total of $154.7 million. It could drop only 37 percent in its sophomore outing, an impressive stat.

Joker is easily staying atop the chart, although MGM and United Releasing's The Addams Family is on course for a strong second-place finish with $32 million, also ahead of expectations. It earned $9.7 million on Friday.
