This weekend, Creed II was the big winner at the domestic box office after the Steven Caple Jr.-directed flick earned a total of $55.806 million over the course of its Wed-Sun opening stretch, making it the
biggest debut ever for a live-action film over the Thanksgiving block.
This Fri-Sun weekend alone, the movie earned $35.293 million, making it the biggest debut from Wed-Sun and Fri-Sun for any non-Disney release during Thanksgiving.
Impressively, it becomes the biggest debut, not adjusted for inflation, for a sports drama and a boxing drama, making it the biggest ever debut in the genre since the arrival of Rocky.
