Jennifer Lopez's "Hustlers" Breaks Major Box Office Records

Hustlers has become their third release to gross over $100 million at the domestic box office. Hustlers has now sold more tickets than Goodfellas.

Lorene Scafaria’s acclaimed black comedy about women (Constance Wu, Jennifer Lopez, Keke Palmer, Lili Reinhart, etc.) doing crime is more successful than Martin Scorsese’s acclaimed black comedy about men (Ray Liotta, Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci, etc.) doing crime.

A handful of New York strippers who use their wiles (and some light drugging) to con their rich clients out of copious legal tender in the aftermath of the 2009 Wall Street crash, has earned 3x its $33 million opening weekend. The $20 million flick has also earned $125 million worldwide. For better or worse, it is only the second female-directed movie of the year to cross $100 million, after Captain Marvel.
