Disney’s animated feature “The Princess and the Frog” hopped to an estimated $7.2 million in domestic grosses Friday — its first day of wide release — to top the day’s boxoffice rankings.
The auspicious start to the weekend means a three-day haul of more than $30 million could be in the offing for the well-reviewed family pic. “Frog” should mark a big day-over-day uptick Saturday as hefty matinee grosses kick in and sustain its weekend momentum through Sunday.
The G-rated film totes $10.2 million in cumulative boxoffice, including two weekends of bicoastal exclusive engagements.
