The Christmas Day release of Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson's new film 'Marley & Me' has already broken a box office record.

Twentieth Century Fox says the film hit $14.8 million in ticket sales at the box office, making it the highest grossing film to ever open on December 25, says Variety. 'Marley & Me' breaks the previous record of $10.2 million set by 'Ali' in 2001.

Also expected to break the previous record with an estimated $11.8 million is 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' starring Brad Pitt, and 'Bedtime Stories' starring Adam Sandler, which pulled in an estimated $10.5 million, according to Variety.
