It’s Monday which means it’s time for the weekend box office report brought to you by our friends at AMC theatres. The Secret Life of Pets dominated the weekend box office, racking up a massive $103.2 million for the No 1 spot, and launching the first new franchise of the summer. The No 2 and 3 spots were in a dead heat with The Legend of Tarzan barely taking the No 2 spot with an estimated $20.6 million dollars bringing its stateside total to $81.4 million. Finding Dory landed at No 3 with $20.4 million dollars and $422.6 million total, becoming the highest-grossing film of the year on a domestic basis. The weekend’s other new release, Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, opened to $16.6 million for the No 4 spot, costing $33 million to produce. The Purge Election Year rounded out the top five, adding $11.7 million to its $58.1 million domestic total. According to a report from Variety, Dope and Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising actress Kiersey Clemons is the top choice to play the female lead in The Flash movie, with Variety’s sources stating the character is likely to be that of Iris West. In the comics, West is a journalist and friend of Barry Allen, the alter ego of the Flash, played by Ezra Miller who made his debut as Allen in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and reprises the role in Justice League. Over at THR, film reporter Borys Kit says Clemons’ casting is not a done deal adding that British singer-songwriter and Southpaw actress Rita Ora is also in the mix as well as Sing Street breakout Lucy Boynton. In a report from Empire Magazine - Amblin, the production company founded by Steven Spielberg famously known for producing science-fiction classics like E.T, Back To The Future and Gremlins – is heading back to the alien/sci-fi genre for a new project entitled The Fall - an alien invasion thriller, from a script by Australian writer Pete Bridges. The folks over at That Hashtag Show caught up with X-Men and Deadpool producer Simon Kinberg at the Saturn Awards recently where the writer/producer confirmed the targeted filming date of Deadpool 2, while also teasing a new X-Men movie. An official release date for Deadpool 2 should come any day now along with another update on New Mutants, which is still in active development. Hugh Jackman’s last go-around as Wolverine will release on March 3, 2017.
