Disney’s faith that a “Frozen” sequel would blow up at the box office proved well founded as the second icy animated musical pulled in a healthy $127 million on its opening weekend, over 30% better than the original, which opened over a long Thanksgiving weekend a few years back.
“Ford v Ferrari” came in a distant second to “Frozen 2,” at $16 million.
That bested an underwhelming opening for “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” which underwhelmed at $13.5.
STX didn’t do that well with the middling cop thriller “21 Bridges,” which copped $9 million and change.
