Chalk up another low-budget success for Lionsgate. After the No. 1 release of “Den of Thieves: Pantera,” the studio has topped the charts again with the Mark Wahlberg thriller “Flight Risk,” which is opening to $12 million from 3,161 theaters amid a wider slowdown for the box office.

Mel Gibson and Mark Wahlberg's thriller 'Flight Risk' will lead another quiet January weekend at the box office.

Flight Risk', the Mark Wahlberg starring, Mel Gibson directed thriller, grossed $950K in previews. It's eyeing an $11M opening for No. 1, Lionsgate's second YTD.
