"Twilight" sequel "New Moon" has set box office history in breaking all records for midnight runs, grossing a whopping $26 million as it debuted in 3,514 theaters at 12:01 am on Friday.
That easily beats the $22.2 million collected by "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" this summer. Today, "New Moon" goes into a total of 4,024 theaters domestically. For a female-driven property to draw such a turnout is also history-making.
Next record "New Moon" is trying to break is Best Opening Day. Current record-holder is "The Dark Knight," which grossed $67.2 million from 4,366 locations on July 18th, 2008.
However the first day grosses for "New Moon" turn out, they will far exceed the $36 million earned by "Twilight" on its first Friday exactly a year ago. They will also be better than the $69.7 million that "Twilight" earned during its opening weekend.
