In a weekend filled with ffxiv gil newcomers, "The Eagle" from Focus Features will land in just over 2,000 theatres and a projected gross in the $8 million to $10 million range. The period adventure set in Roman-ruled Britain stars "Dear John's" Channing Tatum and will draw fans of epics such as "Gladiator," "300" and "Clash of the Titans."
Completing the top five lineup will be last week's No. 1 film, Sony-Screen Gems' "The Roommate," which will bank somewhere between $6 million and $8 million for the Valentine's weekend. Yet another profit-maker for Screen Gems, the film earned back its production budget in its first three days of release and looks to gather a total ffxiv power leveling domestic gross of over $20 million by Sunday night.
