Beyonce Sets Record With "Obsessed"


Sony/Screen Gems sent out a tweet on Sunday that said the $28.5 million opening weekend for their Beyonce film "Obsessed" is the second biggest opening in the studio's history.

The movie stars Beyonce and Idris Elba as a couple whose marriage is threatened when a psychotic temp (Ali Larter) begins stalking the husband.

"Obsessed" also holds the title of the biggest opening ever for a last-week-of-April. The previous record holder was Lindsay Lohan's "Mean Girls" ($24.4M). It also gives Beyonce the best opening of her career as an above-the-title star, topping 2003’s "The Fighting Temptations" ($11.7M) and "Cadillac Records" ($3.4M).
