Lee Daniels' The Butler
Lee Daniels' The Butler has topped the U.S. box office, ending the reign of sci-fi film Elysium.
The Butler is already being tipped as a possible Oscar contender as Lee Daniels returns to the director's chair to tell the true story of a White House butler.
The movie brings together a fantastic ensemble cast that includes Forest Whitaker, Alan Rickman, James Marsden, Robin Williams and Oprah Winfrey.
Lee Daniels' The Butler took over $25 million in its opening weekend to secure the top spot.
There was no move for comedy We're The Millers at number two, while Elysium was down two places as three.
Kick Ass 2 was the second new entry inside the top five as the comic book sequel opened at number four.
Planes and Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters were both down two as they finished the weekend at five and six.
Jobs is just one of the biopic movies to watch out for this autumn as the story of Steve Jobs was brought to the big screen.
The movie sees Ashton Kutchar in the title role, and it was a new entry at number seven.
2 Guns, The Smurfs 2 and The Wolverine were all the biggest fallers this week as they were down three places at eight, nine and ten.
