‘The Chosen’ Studio’s New Film, Sound of Freedom, Scores $40M at Box Office
The studio that brought the world ‘The Chosen’ has another hit on its hands, with their new film Sound of Freedom finishing in third place at the box office.
According to movie site Joblo, while the new Insidious film and Indiana Jones took the top spots, Sound of Freedom was not far behind, and will be making far more money than the new Indy sequel, which is slated to lose $100M dollars.
Third place will belong to Sound of Freedom with an estimated $18.2 million. Add that number to the amount it took in earlier in the week when it actually beat Indiana Jones at the July 4 box office and you have a cumulative domestic total of $40.2 million… nearly three times its reported budget of $14.5 million.
Starring Jim Caviezel, the film is “based upon the true story of former government agent Tim Ballard who quit his job to rescue a little girl from sex traffickers in the Colombian jungle. In the process, Tim ended up saving 123 people, 55 of which were children, from one mission alone.” Notably, Ballard is not a Christian, but instead is a a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
Sound of Freedom has a CinemaScore of A+, a Rotten Tomatoes critic score of 77% and an audience score of 99%
