Its heart still goes on — ‘Titanic’ leads box office 25 years after debut

It will never let go.

The re-release of “Titanic” was unsinkable at the box office, earning $2.72 million on its opening night Friday, according to IMDB’s Box Office Mojo.

The James Cameron-helmed epic is projected to cruise into a $15 million domestic weekend, according to Forbes.

Paramount brought the 1998 Oscar winner back in 4K 3D to celebrate its 25th anniversary.

Prior to the re-release, Titanic was eighth on the all-time top box office list.

It beat out “80 for Brady” which still scored big with $1.85 million in sales.

The sports comedy’s success was “a gamble” according to Screenrant, since it attracts seniors, women and football fans — demographics that haven’t been top movie customers post-pandemic.

“Avatar: The Way of Water” —  the second Cameron-directed film to lead the Friday box office — remained in third place this week with close to $1.7 million in sales.

The M. Night Shyamalan thriller “Knock at the Cabin,” which was in second place last Friday, slipped down to fourth, with a $1.69 million take.

The apocalyptic psychological horror flick is based on the 2018 novel “The Cabin at the End of the World” by Paul Tremblay.

“Puss in Boots: The Last Wish” remained in fifth, and took home $1.3 million.
