HOLLYWOOD – (INT) - The Bean Bag Boys, the self-appointed nickname for the trio of best friends in “Good Boys,” are conquering much more than sixth grade. They are also leading the domestic box office, exceeding expectations.

The Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg-produced movie is the first R-rated comedy to open in first place in three years.

Universal also took second place with “Hobbs & Shaw.” The Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham-led movie has grossed $437 million worldwide.

Despite a handful of newcomers, Disney’s “The Lion King” placed third on the box office charts.

Sony’s “The Angry Birds Movie 2,” which got a head start, landed in fourth place.

Rounding out the top five is Lionsgate’s “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.”
