Will Smith, Charlize Theron and Jason Bateman have lots to smile about. Over the July 4th holiday weekend, Hancock soared to the top of the Box Office Charts, coming away with $66 million.

Despite mixed reviews, the film squashed Disney/Pixar's Wall-E without mercy.

"Audiences love Will Smith and the characters he plays," Columbia's president of domestic theatrical distribution Rory Bruer told Variety.

"People want to share in the things he's doing."

The top ten films at the US box office are: (last week's position)

1 Hancock - $66 million [£33 million] (-)
2 Wall-E - $33.4m [£16.2 million] (1)
3 Wanted - $20.6m [£10.3 million] (2)
4 Get Smart - $11.1m [£5.5 million] (3)
5 Kung Fu Panda - $7.5m [£3.7 million] (4)
6 The Incredible Hulk - $4.9 million [£2.4 million] (5)
7 Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - $3.9 million [£1.9 million] (7)
8 Kit Kittredge: An American Girl - $3.6 million [£1.3 million] (15)
9 Sex and the City - $2.3million [£1.1 million] (9)
10 You Don't Mess with the Zohan - $2 million [£1 million] (10)

Grey's Anatomy and Batman alum Chris O'Donnell and his wife Caroline have delayed sleep and regular showers for another three years - the couple just welcomed their fifth child on December 10.

Maeve Frances O'Donnell joins sister Lily, 8, and brothers Chip, 7; Charlie, 4; Finley, 1. Just doing the math here, Maeve was conceived when little Finley was only three months old. I think about these things so you don't have to.

O'Donnell's next movie is Kit Kittredge: An American Girl, where he'll be playing - what else - a dad.
