Weekend Actuals: ‘The Conjuring 2’ Screams to $40.4M; ‘Warcraft’ w/ $24.1M; ‘Now You See Me 2’ Wasn’t Magic w/ $22.3M

News & Analysis • Boxoffice Staff • June 13 2016

Warner Bros.’ The Conjuring 2 topped the box office with a $40.40 million opening, good enough for first place even if slightly below its predecessor’s $41.85 million opening weekend in July 2013. Universal’s Warcraft opened with a disappointing $24.16 million, unable to translate the popularity of its source video game into box office success. Lionsgate’s Now You See Me 2 opened with $22.38 million, down from the $29.35 million opening weekend of its predecessor in May 2013.
