UPDATE: I guess Warner Bros has another major success. “Wonka,” again, defied expectations and grossed $6 million on Tuesday — an impressive weekday total.
EARLIER: It does look as though “Wonka” might match or surpass its $39 million opening. The film had an incredible Monday, taking in close to $4 million in ticket sales. That’s more than the sum it made during Thursday previews. “Wonka” has, so far, grossed $152 million worldwide. It might turn into a major holiday hit.
