The Town, Ben Affleck’s second directorial feature, surprised analysts this weekend with a win at the box office. The film, which far surpassed Gone Baby Gone’s $5.5 million debut in 2007, earned $23.8 million—a September-best for Warner Bros. The drama, co-starring Jon Hamm and Jeremy Renner, also gave actor Affleck his first #1 film—outside of He’s Just Not that Into You—since Daredevil.
Although many had Easy A topping the charts, the film came in a very respectable second place. The Emma Stone-starrer – which only cost $8 million to produce – generated good reviews and a $17.7 million take.
The weekend’s other two new wide releases also landed in the Top 5. The PG-13 horror film Devil raised $12.3 million while Alpha and Omega, a more family-friendly entry, rang up $9.1 million in ticket sales.

Trailer for The Day The Earth Stood Still
![](http://assets.gearlive.com/images/member_photos/photo_3997.jpg)
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: 20th Century Fox, Science Fiction, Trailers, Upcoming Releases,
In The Day the Earth Stood Still, Keanu Reeves stars as Klaatu, a humanoid alien who arrives on Earth with a robot companion. The two have a warning to deliver to the world’s leaders.
Those familiar with the 1951 original should know this remake will come with a slightly different message. In an interview with MTV, Reeves said, “The version I was just working on, instead of being man against man, it’s more about man against nature. My Klaatu says that if the Earth dies, you die. If you die, the earth survives. I’m a friend to the earth.”
Earth - also starring Jennifer Connelly, Jaden Smith and Jon Hamm - lands in theaters on December 12.
