The results are in, and The King of Kings has done it; it has broken a 27-year-old box office opening weekend record set by Val Kilmer-led The Prince of Egypt. This time, the theatres are filled with different kinds of films, along with the Biblical movie The Chosen: Last Supper Part 3. Its other parts are also running in some places in North America.
