Paramount’s Mission: Impossible — Fallout fell just 43 percent in its sophomore outing to $35 million from 4,395 North American theaters over the weekend. That’s well ahead of the $25 million earned by Disney’s Winnie the Pooh live-action/CGI effort Christopher Robin from 3,602 locations in its launch. Fallout is a major victory for Paramount. The sixth outing in the spy action franchise posted the lowest decline of any film in the series besides Mission: Impossible — Ghost Protocol, which debuted over Christmas in 2011.
