Mean Girls box office collection: Movie witnesses drastic fall

"Mean Girls" made an impressive debut, raking in $28 million in the first weekend. Projections for its second weekend indicate an expected gross of $11.7 million, pushing the cumulative domestic earnings to precisely $50 million within a span of 10 days.

In its sixth weekend, 'Wonka' secured an additional $6.4 million, bringing its cumulative earnings to just shy of $190 million. The movie's sustained performance suggests a strong likelihood of surpassing the $200 million mark in domestic box office revenue. The consistent success of Wonka underscores its enduring popularity and strong viewer support.

Despite a notable 59 percent decline in box office numbers, "Mean Girls" managed to maintain its top position, primarily attributed to the absence of significant competition during this period. The film's performance underscores its enduring popularity and continued success at the box office.


Winter storms and cinema closures in North America didn’t dampen the opening weekend for "Mean Girls". The Paramount release, adapted from the Broadway musical and the 2004 Tina Fey movie, earned $28 million in its first three days in theaters according to studio estimates Sunday. Not accounting for inflation, that’s more than the $24.4 million the first movie made in its opening weekend.

The "Mean Girls" competition over the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday weekend featured several new releases, including the Jason Statham action movie "The Beekeeper" and the Jay-Z produced biblical satire "The Book of Clarence", in addition to a slew of awards contenders capitalizing on buzz from recent nominations and the Golden Globes.
