Weekend Box-Office: MAZE RUNNER Sequel Takes Out Depp's BLACK MASS

The sci-fi adventure sequel "Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials" is the No.1 movie at the box-office, which was the expected outcome, while Johnny Depp's gangster drama "Black Mass" came in second. The best results, however, belong to limited releases "Everest" and "Sicario".

In Theaters: MAZE RUNNER - THE SCORCH TRIALS, BLACK MASS, EVEREST, CAPTIVE

This week in theaters we have a truly wide variety of new entries. First up is the sci-fi sequel "Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials" which is also the most likely to succeed at the box-office. Close behind in the upcoming money-makers top 10 is the crime drama "Black Mass" featuring an Oscar-caliber performance by Johnny Depp. And just in time, I'd say, to wash out the sour taste of "Mortdecai". For those seeking some real thrills, there's the mountain-climbing drama "Everest", based on the tragic actual events that occured in 1996. And last, but maybe definitely among the least, we have the faith-based thriller/drama "Captive" starring Kate Mara and David Oyelowo in a story about book promoting. You'll see what I mean after the jump.

A huge batch of 25 new images have been released for the crime drama "Black Mass". Directed by Scott Cooper ("Out of the Furnace", "Crazy Heart"), the film tells the true story of infamous gangster Whitey Bulger (Johnny Depp) and has, so far, earned some pretty solid reviews.

BLACK MASS Trailer, Images and Posters

The first trailer, images and posters for the true story crime drama "Black Mass" have been released. Directed by Scott Cooper ("Out of the Furnace", "Crazy Heart") and based on Dick Lehr's book, the film stars Johnny Depp as the infamous Whitey Bulger, a notoriously violent criminal who worked as an FBI informer to eliminate a rival family invading his turf, but got burned when the FBI double crossed him and ultimately prosecuted him.

It looks like Depp gives one hell of a performance. He's undergone a serious make-up transformation, as is usually the case with recent characters played by Depp, but this time he truly looks and sounds terrifying. And Cooper is a very promising director, so I have high hopes for this movie. The cast also features Dakota Johnson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Joel Edgerton, Juno Temple, Corey Stoll, Kevin Bacon, Adam Scott, Jesse Plemons, Peter Sarsgaard and Julianne Nicholson.

"Black Mass" opens in theaters on September 18th.
