after the comedian was removed from the film following sexual harassment allegations. “The Secret Life of Pets 2” wasn’t expected to match the opening weekend box office receipts of the original film, but even the sequel’s global start of $97 million was less than the huge $104 million domestic debut of “The Secret Life of Pets.” The animated movie, which again provides insight as to what our pets do when nobody is home, features the voices of Kevin Hart, Tiffany Haddish, Jenny Slate, and Patton Oswalt, who replaced Louis C.K. Directed by Simon Kinberg, “Dark Phoenix” stars Sophie Turner, James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, and Nicholas Hoult. “Dark Phoenix” had a stronger start overseas, where it raked in $107 million. “Dark Phoenix” is a sequel to 2016’s “X-Men: Apocalypse,” which bowed with $65 million and went on to earn $543 million in ticket sales worldwide. Prior to this film, 2013’s “The Wolverine” ranked as the lowest opening for an “X-Men” film with $53 million. “It’s a competitive landscape as always in the summer, but we think the dedicated fans will find and appreciate the movie, especially as it comes to the conclusion.” “We wanted to see a stronger performance,” said Cathleen Taff, Disney’s president of global distribution.
