In total, “The Color Purple” has now taken in about $55 million, with advance group sales contributing to the large Christmas Day result. (Theaters and studios split ticket sales roughly 50-50.) The film will start its overseas rollout on Jan. 18. In a promising sign for the film’s box office, more white and Hispanic moviegoers came out in recent days.

The film’s second-weekend demographic breakdown was 47 percent Black, 39 percent white, 10 percent Hispanic and less than 4 percent Asian, according to PostTrak data.
