San Andreas ’ $53.2 million opening weekend is the best ever box office debut for Dwayne Johnson as a solo star. Does San Andreas’ hot box office start finally make Johnson a bona fide A-list movie star? As a solo star, only Johnson’s family films have been hits, and modest ones at best — his most successful film to date, 2007’s The Game Plan, pulled in $90.6 million domestically. The Rock stars alongside Carla Gugino in San Andreas. Over the weekend, San Andreas nearly quadrupled the box office sales of its closest rival, Pitch Perfect 2.
