Posted on April 13, 2011

The animated Hop movie, starring James Marsden, Russell Brand and Kaley Cuoco, won the box office for the second straight weekend. The film made another $21.2 million to bring its total box office gross to $67.8. Hop opened with $38 million last weekend.

Hop was followed by Hanna, a thriller starring young talent Saoirse Ronan. Hanna made $12.4 million. Arthur came in third with a disappointing $12.2 million take. Russell Brand, who played Arthur, ended up being defeated by himself in Hop. Soul Surfer, starring AnnaSophia Robb, performed very well and made $10.6 million in 2,200 theaters. Soul Surfer was followed by Insidious, which made $9.3 million during its second week in theaters.

Your Highness, a fantasy comedy starring Natalie Portman, did not do well in theaters and made just $9.3 million. You can see the complete box office report here.
