Wrath of the Titans was the no. 4 movie at the North American box office on Friday, April 6, according to studio estimates found at Box Office Mojo. Starring Avatar’s Sam Worthington, the fantasy adventure grossed $5.42 million. The $150 million production will be crossing the $50 million mark at the domestic box office sometime today.

At no. 5, Tarsem Singh’s Mirror Mirror brought in $4.58 million, raising the comedy fantasy’s cume to $30 million. The film stars Julia Roberts, Armie Hammer, and Lily Collins. (A radically different take on the Snow White tale, Snow White and the Huntsman, opens on June 1. It stars Chris Hemsworth, Kristen Stewart, Charlize Theron, and Sam Claflin.)

Rounding out the top nine movies on the domestic chart were Channing Tatum / Jonah Hill’s 21 Jump Street with $3.62 million; the animated feature Dr. Seuss’ The Lorax, which should reach the $200 million milestone on Sunday, with $2.3 million; Ewan McGregor / Emily Blunt’s Salmon Fishing in Yemen with $320k; and Andrew Stanton / Taylor Kitsch’s John Carter with $291k.
