Ridley Scott’s hotly anticipated sci-fi adventure “Prometheus” also had a huge debut, taking second place with an opening take of $51 million, the box office tracker said.
The pair bumped “Snow White and the Huntsman,” which was fairest of them all last weekend, off the top of the charts into third place.

The reunion of Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones as secret agents battling aliens living on Earth in the sci-fi comedy sequel “Men in Black 3” brought $13.9 million for fourth spot.
In fifth place was comic book superhero blockbuster “The Avengers,” pocketing $11.2 million, which has so far raked in more than $572 million in North America alone.
“The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,” a comedic drama about British retirees in India, took in $3.3 million for sixth place.
Keeping its seventh place was romantic comedy “What to Expect When You’re Expecting,” about five interconnected couples sharing the experience of having a baby, with $2.8 million.
