Disney’s live-action remake of The Jungle Book was the king of the box office for the second week in a row, making an impressive $60.8 million, according to Box Office Mojo. Dropping only 41.1%, the film has made about $191 million domestically and over $528 million internationally. In other Disney news, Zootopia continued to perform well, crossing the $900 million mark worldwide.
Meanwhile, The Huntsman: Winter’s War didn’t exactly rein at the box office. This prequel to the 2012 hit only took in about $20.1 million. Considering that Snow White and the Huntsman opened with $56 million and made almost $400 million worldwide, this is a pretty disappointing start. With a reported budget of $115 million, Winter’s War will be lucky if it can just break even. Honestly, though, did anybody really want to see a gritty ripoff of Frozen?
