Box office: Sinners wins Easter with the best opening weekend of any purely original film this decade

Also: The King of Kings had the best second weekend of any biblical or faith-based film since The Passion of the Christ.

Michael B. Jordan in Sinners.

A few of this week’s highlights:

• Sinners—the first non-franchise film that Ryan Coogler (Black Panther, Creed) has directed since 2013’s Fruitvale Station—won the Easter weekend with the biggest opening of any purely original film this decade (i.e. of any film that was not based on a book, toy, video game, comic book, concert tour, or another movie).

• The King of Kings had the best second weekend of any “faith-based” or biblical movie since The Passion of the Christ, and it has already passed The Star to become the top-grossing animated Bible movie since The Prince of Egypt.

• The 20th-anniversary re-release of Pride & Prejudice—the Keira Knightley / Matthew Macfadyen version—landed in the top ten.

• The Chosen: Last Supper part one became the first film in the series’ history to gross at least $20 million in North America, while part two and part three are now the first mid- or late-season releases to gross over $10 million.
