April 5, 2008

George Clooney’s screwball comedy “Leatherheads” failed to open in the top spot at the weekend box office in North America, coming in at No. 2 behind reigning champ “21,” according to preliminary data issued on Saturday.

“Leatherheads” sold $4.54 million worth of tickets during its first day in theaters on Friday, distributor Universal Pictures said. The General Electric Co-owned studio forecast a three-day haul of $13.845 million.
