LOS ANGELES, April 8 — Godzilla x Kong extended its monstrous reign over the North American box office for a second weekend, according to estimates yesterday from industry watcher Exhibitor Relations.

The feature, which sees the enormous gorilla and reptilian giant set their differences aside and team up to save their species — and ours — took in US$31.7 million over the weekend in the United States and Canada, according to the figures.
