There’s a new reigning box office champion in town. Revenge comedy _The Other Woman_ knocked down _Captain America: The Winter Soldier_ after the Marvel action flick’s three weeks at the top, as the appeal of co-stars Cameron Diaz, Leslie Mann and Kate Upton managed to rake in $24.7 million in its opening weekend. _The Other Woman’s_ audience was [reportedly](https://movies.yahoo.com/news/other-woman-laughs-way-box-office-bank-25-152600307.html) 75 percent women, faring more than adequately despite receiving a paltry 25 percent positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes. _Captain America’s_ $16 million this week was good enough for second place, while _Heaven is for Real_ placed third at $13 million. _Rio 2_‘s $13 million and _Brick Mansion_‘s $9 million round out the top five.


## Transcript

The ladies take over the box office this weekend, and finally dethrone Captain America, who had been riding high for three weeks straight. This is gonna be a lot of fun. [ MUSIC ] But we begin with Paul Walker's second to last film, Brick Mansions, which is number five at the box office and expected to bring in about 9. 5 million dollars this weekend. Walker plays an under cover cop who teams up with an ex convict to take down a drug kingpin played by Rizuh. Walker died in a car crash last November. In remembrance, Relatively Media the production company behind the film made a donation to Walker's charity Reach Out Worldwide.

Number 4th box office, Rio 2 dropping two spots from last week, and bringing in an estimated 13 million dollars domestically in it's third weekend. The animated film has done even better overseas with almost $ 247 million in tickets sold outside of the US. Holding on tight to the number three spot for the second week in a row is Heaven is for Real, the faith based film about a little boy who claims to have been to heaven and back during a near death experience. You saw my grandfather? Where did you see him In heaven. Heaven for real is just the latest in a string of faith based films to do better than expected at the box office.

Movie cost about $ 12 million to make and has brought in an estimated $ 51 million over the past two weeks. And finally, after three long weeks as king of the hill, Captain America has been bumped to the number two spot at the box office, bringing in $ 16 million. So who is responsible for knocking off the Marvel mega hit? Apparently a lot of woman movie goers starved for comedy. The Other Woman is the first female led comedy released in more than a month and reportedly 75 % of it's audience is made up of women. Oh my. The Other Woman carried by Cameron Diaz and Leslie Mann with Kate Upton and Sir Jamie Lannister playing back- up is estimated to bring in 24.

7 million dollars, putting it well past Captain America this week. Oh, and honorable mention this week goes to The Amazing Spiderman 2, which thanks to global box offices, has made almost 132 million before it's debut in the US. Thanks for watching, I'm Jamal Andrews.
