Un Gallo Con Muchos Huevos - Trailer Oficial (PantelionFilms)

Un Gallo con Muchos Huevos (A Rooster with Many Eggs) the PG-13 Mexican animated feature that was just released in the United States, will end up among the top 10 films at the U.S. box office this weekend. The film made $885,000 on Friday, and is headed to a robust $4 million for the Fri-Mon holiday period.

This is a remarkable accomplishment considering that the film opened in under 400 theaters, is screening in its original Spanish language with English subtitles, and had no English-language advertising campaign or mainstream press coverage.

Even more remarkable: Gallo is trending toward this weekend’s best per-theater average among all films in the top 10, beating Hollywood blockbusters like Straight Outta Compton and Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation.

...Gallo launched in Mexico on August 20, where it has been the country’s number one film for two weeks running, and is currently the top-grossing local release of 2015 in that country.
