ew York(CNN Business) "Joker" broke box office records this weekend, even as its controversial depiction of violence made some potential theatergoers anxious.
The gritty Warner Bros. film about the origins of the crazed Batman nemesis brought in an estimated $93.5 million in North America this weekend. That makes "Joker" the highest-grossing opening in the history of October. The film shattered the record held by Sony Pictures' "Venom," which made $80 million last October.
"Joker" is the largest opening for Warner Bros. this year as well as one of the biggest openings for a R-rated film. It made $234 million worldwide.
