“The King of Kings” came in third place with $17.3 million.
Spy thriller “The Amateur” earned $7.2 million, landing it in fourth place.
Warfare-themed action film “Warfare” rounded out the top five with $4.9 million.
It was a strong weekend overall for theaters, with thrillers and action dominating the charts.
