Warner Bros.‘s The Accountant stormed well ahead of BoxOfficeMojo‘s weekend forecast to finish #1 for the weekend. The Ben Affleck starrer more than than doubled its closest competition, which found a pair of Universal titles competing for second place between the debut of Kevin Hart: What Now? and last weekend’s #1 film, The Girl on the Train.
