Mortal Kombat II has surpassed Tron: Ares at the North American box office
Tron: Ares is the third film in the Tron franchise, featuring Jared Leto and Jeff Bridges. It was a huge box-office disappointment despite a massive budget; the movie failed to attract enough audiences in cinemas. According to Box Office Mojo, Tron: Ares collected $73.1 million at the North American box office in its lifetime. The video game movie took 56 days to reach this number, while Mortal Kombat II has surpassed it in just 18 days.
According to industry trackers’ report, Mortal Kombat II is tracking to earn between $80 million and $90 million in its original run at the North American box office. Therefore, the Karl Urban movie would also surpass the domestic haul of Margot Robbie-led Wuthering Heights. For the record, Wuthering Heights collected $84 million in its lifetime at the North American box office. Mortal Kombat II could beat it in its original run.
