Next up: No. 1 Alabama, and a… Source link

It looks like Netflix’s (NFLX) $200 million bet on “The Gray Man” might have paid off. The action-packed film starring Ryan Gosling, Chris Evans, and Ana De Armas made its debut on the platform on Friday and quickly climbed its way to the top of the streamer’s competitive top 10 list, despite lackluster reviews.
