It was another landmark week for Todd Phillips’ Joker, as not only did the it become the number one R-rated film of all time, but it also eked out a win over Maleficent: Mistress of Evil to once again rule the box office.
In a close race, per Variety, Joker brought in an estimated $18.9 million while the Maleficent sequel scooped up $18.5 million. Again, this is a tight margin so the rankings could change by tomorrow.
