Starring Robert Downey Jr. as a successful lawyer who has to defend his estranged father, a veteran judge played by Godfather actor Robert Duvall, it earned $13.3 million in its opening weekend.

Annabelle, starring Peaky Blinders actress Annabelle Wallis, tells of a couple who experience terrifying supernatural occurrences involving a vintage doll.

The film, a prequel to 2013 hit The Conjuring, spooked audiences into giving up $16.4 million in its second weekend on release.

Gone Girl stars Ben Affleck as a writer who becomes a suspect when his wife, played by Rosamund Pike, goes missing.

Since opening the US last week, David Fincher’s adaptation of Gillian Flynn’s best-selling novel has earned $78.3 million.
