Green Lantern has topped the UK box office on its first weekend

Green Lantern has topped the UK box office on its first weekend on release.

The 3D superhero epic, starring Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively, takes in £2.4 million to edge past family movie Kung Fu Panda 2 and claim the number one spot.

Green Lantern's opening falls significantly short of the Kung Fu Panda sequel's £6 million bow and the £11 million debut for the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie. Fellow comic book adaptation X-Men: First Class took in more than £5 million on its first weekend earlier this month, despite not having the benefit of a box office boost from the price of 3D tickets.

Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake comedy Bad Teacher charts at number three, while The Hangover Part II and X-Men round out the top five.

Elsewhere, Catherine Deneuve and Gérard Depardieu's French comedy Potiche debuts at number nine with just over £200,000.

Kevin Macdonald's YouTube-sourced documentary Life in a Day and Mel Gibson's The Beaver both fail to make a dent in the top ten.
