Ticket offices in the United States and Canada recorded fewer sales for the sci-fi thriller Dune (Danube) on its second screening weekend, but even so, he maintained the leadership with an estimated collection of $ 15.5 millionindustry observer Exhibitor Relations reported Sunday.

The Warner Bros. version of the Frank Herbert classic lost 62% over its opening weekend, a considerable drop but less than that suffered by other recent great releases, as many viewers chose to see Denis Villeneuve’s film, visually spectacular, on the large Imax screens.

Starring Timothee Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya and Oscar Isaac, Dune tells the story of a family in the distant future struggling to survive on a desert planet plagued by monstrous sandworms, but also a valuable resource called a spice.

All over the world, the movie is approaching $ 300 million in ticket sales.
