The sci-fi action flick Rampage dominated North American theaters this weekend, opening to $34.5 million to knock A Quiet Place out of the No. 1 spot. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Naomie Harris, and Malin Akerman, Rampage follows a primatologist’s desperate quest to stop genetically mutated animals from destroying Chicago. A Quiet Place, the directorial debut of The Office star John Krasinski, stayed strong in its second weekend with $32.9 million, taking second place in theaters. Third place went to Truth or Dare, a supernatural thriller starring Tyler Posey and Lucy Hale that raked in $19 million in its debut weekend.
