Stewart, Pattinson crowned top earning romantic film couple

NEW YORK: With three box office hits earning $1.17 billion at the US box office over the past three years, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson are Hollywood’s highest-grossing romantic film couple.

The stars of the “Twilight” vampire films easily surpassed all other film twosomes in the Forbes list that looked at the top 10 grossing romantic films of the last three years. “There is something unique about these films in the way that people have attached themselves to them,” said Dorothy Pomerantz of Forbes.com. “The movies are unconventional, and you have the added element that the two people are a couple in real life,” she added. Stewart and Pattinson’s off-screen romance and breakup following Stewart’s affair with Rupert Sanders, the married director of her film “Snow White and the Huntsman,” fueled interest in the couple, who reportedly reunited ahead of the release of the final film in the popular “Twilight” series based on the novels by Stephenie Meyer. Forbes compiled the list by looking at the top-grossing romantic films in the United States in the past three years as classified by Box Office Mojo. They added the totals for each couple’s US box office. The last three films in the “Twilight” series, “Eclipse,” “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 1” and “The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2,” were included in the box office calculations. Channing Tatum, who was voted People magazine’s sexiest man alive in 2012, and “The Vow” co-star Rachel McAdams came in second, with the film earning $125 million domestically, as well as $71 million overseas. Jennifer Aniston and Adam Sandler captured the No. 3 spot with “Just Go With It,” which earned $103 million at the US box office and double that amount after international sales were included. Pattinson and Tatum actually made the list twice, Pattinson scoring with Reese Witherspoon for “Water for Elephants,” which placed 10th, earning $59 million domestically. And Tatum and co-star Amanda Seyfried pulled in $80 million at the US box office with the sixth-ranked “Dear John,” which was based on a book by Nicholas Sparks. Two other films based on Sparks’ books were among the top 10 most lucrative romantic films. http://rtilive.pk/detail/9618 Right to Information Pakistan Live, RTI Live, Information Pakistan, RTI online Research ORganization,breaking news pakistan,current news about pakistan,current news from pakistan,current news of pakistan,current news on pakistan,current news pakistan,google news pakistan,hot news of pakistan,karachi pakistan news,latest news about pakistan,latest news from pakistan,latest news in pakistan,latest news of pakistan,latest news on pakistan,latest news pakistan,latest news pakistan urdu,latest pakistan news,live news pakistan,news about pakistan,news from pakistan,news in pakistan,news of pakistan,news on pakistan,news pakistan,news pakistan latest,pakistan current news,pakistan flood news,pakistan floods news,pakistan karachi news,pakistan latest news,pakistan latest news online,pakistan live news,pakistan new news,pakistan news,pakistan news channel,pakistan news lahore,pakistan news latest,pakistan news live,pakistan news online,pakistan news paper,pakistan news papers,pakistan news service,pakistan news today,pakistan news tv,pakistan news urdu,pakistan news english,pakistan news video,pakistan political news,pakistan top news,pakistan urdu news,pakistan english news,pakistan world news,todaynews of pakistan,rti news of pakistan,rtilive news of pakistan,top news of pakistan,urdu news pakistan,english news pakistan,urdu pakistan news,english pakistan news,world news pakistan,www pakistan urdu news,www pakistan english news,www rtilive pk news,yahoo pakistan news,action news,breaking news,business news, current news,daily news,e news,entertainment news,google news,headline news,india news,pakistan news,international news,it news,latest news,live news,lacal news,national news,new news,news,news channel,news channels,news entertainment,news for kids,news for today,news live,news of the day,news of the world,news of today,news of world,news paper,news papers,news today,news video,news weather,online news,recent news,science news,news the,today news,top news,weather news,world news,news yahoo,yahoo news,Law & justice in Pakistan, Court cases, constitutional cases, chief justice of Pakistan, Justice and court news, criminal cases, Supreme court cases in Pakistan, Judgments of Supreme Court,twilight vampire flims,stewart and robert most romantic couple,Twilight series, Eclipse,The Twilight Saga, Breaking Dawn, Box Office Mojo,
