Sunday estimates (which are rarely off even by a few hundred thousand dollars) had The Bourne Legacy down as earning 40.3 million during its opening weekend in North America. However, the final day of the London Olympics - and subsequent closing ceremony - seemingly took a massive chunk out of that haul as final box office figures reveal that it made only £38.1 million.
