Enough viewers saw "The Invisible Man" this weekend to propel it to the top of the North American box office, with an estimated $28.9 million in ticket sales, industry watcher Exhibitor Relations reported Sunday. 
 
That result for the Friday-to-Sunday period more than justified Universal's bet on a remake of the famous H.G. Wells story -- the studio spent a mere $7 million to produce the film, which has already taken in $20 million overseas and drawn strong reviews. 
 
The thriller stars the visibly talented Elisabeth Moss as the ex-girlfriend of a man (British actor Oliver Jackson-Cohen) who seems to return to haunt her after supposedly committing suicide.&nbsp; 
 
Slipping from the top spot in its third week out was Paramount's adventure comedy "Sonic the Hedgehog," at $16 million. Jim Carrey stars as the villainous Dr&nbsp;Robotnik in the video-game-based film.&nbsp; 
 
In third place was 20th Century's "The Call of the Wild," starring Harrison Ford, at $13.2 million. The story is loosely based on the Jack London classic, set in the wilds of Alaska and Canada's Klondike region. 
 
Fourth spot went to a new Japanese manga film, "My Hero Academia," from Funimation, at $5.1 million. It tells the story of a young boy, often bullied, who finds his way into a prestigious high school for superheroes-in-training. 
 
And in fifth, still strong in its seventh week out, was Sony's "Bad Boys for Life," at $4.3 million. The action-comedy, starring Will Smith and Martin Lawrence, has passed the $400 million mark worldwide. 
 
Rounding out the top 10 were: 
 
"Birds of Prey" ($4.1 million) 
 
"Impractical Jokers: The Movie" ($3.5 million) 
 
"1917" ($2.7 million) 
 
"Brahms: The Boy II" ($2.6 million) 
 
"Fantasy Island" ($2.3 million)
