奥利维娅·科尔曼主演的奇幻爱情片《Wicker》上映第二个周末在北美扩映,票房逆势上扬。据票房统计机构The Numbers的数据,该片第二个周末在2,374家影院收入约413万美元,北美累计票房达到约1,326万美元,超越杰森·斯坦森主演的《Shelter》(1,280万美元),成为发行商黑熊影业(Black Bear)北美发行史上票房最高的影片。
本站10月26日报道过,该片10月23日上映,首周末以574.6万美元居周榜第五。第二周,黑熊把放映影院从1,471家扩大到2,374家;该片第二个周五单日票房140万美元,仅比首周五下跌39.6%,创下黑熊影业史上最佳的第二周五成绩;整个第二周末跌幅仅约28%,在本周末北美票房榜上从第五升至第四。
这部电影是今年圣丹斯电影节上的一笔小买卖:黑熊仅以250万美元买下其北美发行权,影片制作成本约1,000万美元。如今其北美票房已达买入价的五倍多,海外市场才刚刚起步:英国已于10月30日上映,澳大利亚定于11月5日上映。
《Wicker》由Alex Huston Fischer与Eleanor Wilson联合执导,改编自Ursula Wills-Jones的短篇小说《柳条丈夫》(The Wicker Husband)。科尔曼在片中饰演一名独居海边的渔村女子,她请当地的编织匠为自己编织一位「柳条丈夫」,亚历山大·斯卡斯加德亦有参演。影片在烂番茄网站获得94%的新鲜度认证,观众评分92%。
在本周末整体清淡的北美市场,《Wicker》是少数逆势扩映的影片。本周末北美票房榜首是A24出品的纪录片《You Can See Everything》(约1,060万美元),华纳兄弟的DC新片《泥面人》以约1,040万美元居第二。

Follow-Up: Olivia Colman's 'Wicker' Passes $13.2 Million in North America to Become Black Bear's Biggest-Ever Release
Olivia Colman's fantasy romance 'Wicker' expanded in its second weekend in North America and climbed against the market. According to figures from box office tracker The Numbers, the film earned about $4.13 million in its second weekend across 2,374 theaters, bringing its North American total to roughly $13.26 million. That passes the $12.8 million of Jason Statham's 'Shelter' and makes 'Wicker' the highest-grossing domestic release in distributor Black Bear's history.
As GSM reported on October 26, the film opened on October 23 and debuted at No. 5 with $5.75 million. In week two, Black Bear expanded it from 1,471 to 2,374 theaters. Its second Friday grossed $1.4 million, down just 39.6 percent from its opening Friday, the best second Friday in Black Bear's history. The full second weekend fell only about 28 percent, lifting the film from fifth to fourth on the North American chart.
The film was a small buy at this year's Sundance Film Festival: Black Bear acquired North American rights for just $2.5 million, against a production budget of about $10 million. Its domestic gross is now more than five times the purchase price, and overseas rollout is only beginning: it opened in the United Kingdom on October 30 and reaches Australia on November 5.
'Wicker' is directed by Alex Huston Fischer and Eleanor Wilson and adapted from Ursula Wills-Jones' short story 'The Wicker Husband.' Colman plays a fisherwoman living alone in a seaside village who commissions a local basketmaker to weave her a husband out of wicker. Alexander Skarsgård also stars. The film is Certified Fresh at 94 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, with a 92 percent audience score.
In a quiet Halloween weekend market overall, 'Wicker' was one of the few titles expanding. A24's documentary 'You Can See Everything' led the North American chart with about $10.6 million, followed by Warner Bros.' DC film 'Clayface' at about $10.4 million.
