‘Wolverine’ claws its way to No. 1 box office spot
LOS ANGELES (AP) — You can't keep a good X-Man down. Hugh Jackman's prequel "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" leaped to the top of the box office with an $87 million opening weekend, according to studio estimates today. That put the movie right in the pack with the three previous "X-Men" movies in which Jackman played mutant superhero Wolverine.
The Warner Bros. romantic comedy "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past," starring Matthew McConaughey and Jennifer Garner, debuted in second place with $15.3 million.
