AceShowbiz - The animated "Trolls World Tour" has set a new world record for opening weekend digital rentals after the film debuted out of cinemas due to the coronavirus lockdown.
The sequel to 2016 hit "Trolls" premiered on Friday, April 10, and took in $30 million (£23 million) over Easter Weekend, overtaking the previous digital records set by "Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom" and "Avengers: Endgame".
"Trolls World Tour" has ranked number one on digital platforms, including Amazon, Comcast, Apple, Vudu, Google/YouTube, DirecTV and FandangoNow, where the film replaced "Bad Boys for Life" as America's top video-on-demand hit.
It also became the Fandango service's most pre-ordered title of all time, the bestselling film on its opening day, and the bestselling film during its first three days of digital release.
"Bad Boys for Life" dropped to two on the FandangoNow chart, with "Sonic the Hedgehog", "Birds of Prey: And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn" and "The Invisible Man" completing the top five.
This week's new releases on video-on-demand include "Fantasy Island" and "The Rhythm Section".
