Warner Bros. is shielding domestic grosses for Tenet, but it generated $6.7M in US and Canada theaters during its second weekend of release, according to Variety.
Major markets in New York, Los Angeles, and San Francisco remain closed, but 65-75% of theaters in the States have reportedly reopened at limited capacity.

The flick features John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Michael Caine, and Kenneth Branagh.
