That success for “Mufasa” isn’t coming at the expense of “Sonic 3,” which continues to hum along with $10.3 million on Wednesday. The video game adaptation now has $88 million domestic and should reach $125-130 million by Sunday as it begins its overseas rollout.

The sleepy Christmas Eve frame was led by 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' with Timothee Chalamet Bob Dylan movie 'A Complete Unknown' grossing $1.4M in previews.

Christmas moviegoers visited the Pride Lands, propelling Disney's "Mufasa: The Lion King” to the top of the box office. The family friendly adventure was the holiday’s highest-grossing release, earning $14.
