The historical action epic "The Woman King," starring Viola Davis, dominated American box office rankings during its first weekend.

The film exceeded expectations by earning $19 million from 3,765 North American theaters over the course of the weekend thanks to excellent reviews and word-of-mouth advertising. Sony predicted a debut closer to $12 million, but independent tracking agencies predicted "The Woman King" would open to $15 to $18 million.

The fact that "The Woman King" cost $50 million to make, not adding the tens of millions in marketing costs, such as a screening at the Toronto International Film Festival, is fortunate given Sony's extremely cautious estimates. eOne contributed to co-financing the film.
