Believe it or not, out of 351 domestic releases, this is Lionsgate's first theatrical faith-based drama outside of the Tyler Perry movies. That gives the $20m drama, based on the 2007 William P. Young, a solid 2.95x weekend multiplier. The film earned an A from Cinemascore, and I'd be a little surprised if it weren't at least a little bit leggy. Ry Russo-Young's well-reviewed adaptation of Lauren Oliver's novel earned $4.9 million over its debut weekend. The film earned just $1.5 million debut weekend.
