Opening weekend results, global box office totals, sequel and reboot announcements, casting decisions and the production timelines that carry a franchise installment from greenlight to release are the recurring subjects here. New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston and Phoenix generate the largest domestic box office returns for wide-release action films, and results from those markets on opening weekend set the terms for the coverage that follows.
