After three weeks in release, The Unbreakable Boy saw its theater count fall to just 458 locations from Friday through Sunday - down from nearly 1,200 a week earlier - and it managed to bring in just $210,000, according to The Numbers website. That is a major drop from the $606,000 the film made the previous weekend, but it still managed to claim 19th place overall at the box office; through 24 days in theaters, the film has generated more than $6.2 million in North American ticket revenue.

Produced by the Christian brother duo of Andrew and Jon Erwin through their Kingdom Story Company and its partnership with Lionsgate, The Unbreakable Boy tells the true story of a child with an infectious enthusiasm for life despite suffering from autism and brittle bone disease. It stars Zachary Levi and Christian actress Patricia Heaton.
