Shane Black’s reboot The Predator led a ho-hum weekend at the North American box office with $24 million, enough to top the chart but coming in behind expectations. Overseas, the $88 million Fox movie opened to an even more disappointing $30.7 million from 72 markets for a lackluster global start of $54.7 million.
