Jackie Robinson Bio-Pic Wins Big


42, the Jackie Robinson bio-pic, scores the number one spot at the box office this week...

42, starring Chadwick Boseman as Jackie Robinson and Nicole Beharie as his wife Rachel, pulled in an impressive $27.3 million opening weekend, the most ever for a baseball movie.

42 is the story of Dodgers owner Branch Rickey and his role in ending segregation in baseball by signing Jackie Robinson in 1947.
