Leonardo DiCaprio appears to have fended off Bruce Willis and a bunch of crazies.
According to box office projections, Shutter Island, last week’s #1 and the best opening of DiCaprio’s career, will stay in the top spot this weekend with roughly $21 million.
This week’s two big debuts are estimated to round out the top 3. Cop Out, starring Willis and Tracy Morgan, projects to an $18.5 million haul, while small town horror flick The Crazies is expected to take in about $15 million.
Box office machine Avatar will pass $700 million in North America, coming in ahead of movies released nearly two months after it hit theaters.
