Video After The Jump
Straight Outta Compton has been a huge success. The movie has pulled in over $120 million at the box office in the U.S. since opening on August 14.
The budget for the film was $28 million, so you can imagine that the executives at Universal are very pleased.
Box Office Mojo projects it will finish on top for the third week in a row with an estimated $15 million windfall over the weekend.
Ice Cube, one of the original members of N.W.A., is pleasantly surprised by the movie's success, especially the $60 million opening weekend.
"I'm surprised that it did $60 million," Cube said. "We would be happy with 35-40 [million]. 40 would have been, you know pop some champagne, but 60 is ridiculous."
