Despite that apparent success, M. Night Shyamalan's long-awaited follow-up to Unbreakable and slightly less long (but no less anticipated) sequel to Split still emerged as something of a disappointment in terms of earnings, falling a hair below expectations. Still, with a $20 million budget and more than $95 million worldwide after a few days on release, it's hardly a flop.
Glass Movie Review 'Found myself in love with the look, the feel, the characters all over again'-
Glass pushed The Upside down to second place, where it made $18.3 million in the four days. Aquaman has now spent five weeks in the charts and it's still swimming strong, dropping to third on $12.5 million.
Yet perhaps a bigger story than the arrival from Shyamalan's latest was the surprise success of an anime title. Dragon Ball Super: Broly was released on just 1,236 screens compared to Glass' nearly 4,000 and it still earned $11.4 million for the three-day weekend and nearly $22 million total. Not bad for a movie that enjoyed little mainstream promotion.
Fifth was Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse, fresh from a brace of awards this weekend and looking like a potential surprise Oscar winner. It earned $9.7 million while A Dog's Way Home fell to sixth on $9.6 million and Escape Room was pushed to seventh, where it made $6.75 million.
Mary Poppins Returns bobbed down another couple of spots to eighth, adding $6.73 million, ahead of Bumblebee, which earned $5.8 million. Finally, at 10th On The Basis Of Sex took in $4.6 million.
