The Kings of Mykonos: Wog Boy 2 has opened at #2 of the Greek box office.

The comedy, directed by Peter Andrikidis and starring Nick Giannopoulos and Vince Colosimo, was behind Sex and the City 2 in its second week, with U$554, 877 on 120 screens. The latest entry in the Sex and the City franchise has earned U$1.96m in Greece.

except as you’ll notice there is an error. Gross-to-date suggests over $400,000 while weekend gross differs.
Thanks Michael; the box office mojo report had not been published at the time we ran this story, but it has now been updated.
The discrepancy may mean it opened earlier in the week and not on Friday, or that there were preview screenings. We will check with the Australian producer, Emile Sherman.
