In its fourth weekend, Disney and Marvel's"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" made an estimated $20 million in North America to take third place. It's now made $299 million domestically.The performance of"The Little Mermaid" represents something of a bounce-back for Disney's animated-to-live-action remakes, and makes it likely they will keep coming indefinitely.
