From the first shocking scenes in Lee Child’s explosive new novel, Jack Reacher is plunged like a knife into the heart of a conspiracy that is killing old friends…and is on its way to something even worse.įrom the casting information that we have seen it is likely that the series will follow a similar pattern, but as with the first season of Reacher and most book adaptations there are virtually always significant differences in the writing from the book and the series itself.

Yes, this skips 10 books in between the first season and the second season of the TV show, which for the book lover that I am is a slight bit cringe. Dergarabedian noted that it's an interesting market for films right now, which have a lot of competition in theaters in addition to the distraction of the election.This season of Reacher is based on the 11th book of the Jack Reacher book series Bad Luck and Trouble. Overall, it's the first "up" weekend at the box office in over a month. Michael Moore's surprise documentary "Michael Moore In TrumpLand" also raked in $50,200 from two theaters this weekend. "Moonlight" will be expanding in the coming weeks. It's going to be on everyone's Oscar radar now," said Dergarabedian. It's a massive result for a film with no big stars and a fairly unknown director in Barry Jenkins. In limited release, the critically acclaimed coming-of-age drama "Moonlight" got off to a robust start in four theaters with $414,740 and many sell-out showings. The film, starring Isla Fisher and Zack Galifianakis as a pair of boring suburbanites intrigued by the arrival of a glamourous new couple played by Jon Hamm and Gal Gadot was savaged by critics. Less successful was 20th Century Fox's comedy "Keeping Up with the Joneses," which launched with a tepid $5.6 million. Holdovers "The Account" and "The Girl on the Train" rounded out the top five with $14 million and $7.3 million. The sequel, directed by Edward Zwick and costing $60 million, will also likely be making the bulk of its money from international audiences.Ĭoming in third this weekend was the horror prequel "Ouija: Origin of Evil" with $14.1 million - just the latest in a string of highly fruitful and modestly budgeted horror pics this year, including "The Conjuring 2," ''Don't Breathe" and "Light's Out." That film went on to gross $80.1 million domestically and $218.3 globally. James Dover Grant1CBE(born 29 October 1954), primarily known by his pen nameLee Child, is a British author who writes thrillernovels, and is best known for his Jack Reachernovel series.2 The books follow the adventures of a former American military policeman, Jack Reacher, who wanders the United States. It's a far cry from Cruise's successes with the "Mission: Impossible" movies for Paramount, but it did do significantly better than the first "Jack Reacher," which opened right before Christmas in 2012 to $15.2 million. "A Madea Halloween" proved to be the strongest of the slew of sequels this weekend, topping even the star power of Tom Cruise, whose "Jack Reacher: Never Go Back" took in $23 million for Paramount Pictures. That timing, along with the promising A CinemaScore, should bode well for the film's second weekend over Halloween. It's a perfect combination, Madea and Halloween right before Halloween," said comScore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian. The Madea character has provided box office dividends for years.
