Capturing the true story of Abby Johnson, "Unplanned" relates how she quit a job as director of an abortion facility in Texas in 2009 after experiencing a conversion and renouncing abortion. Starring actress Ashley Bratcher in the role of Johnson, "Unplanned" has grossed more than $18 million in cinemas during the course of 19 weeks, according to Box Office Mojo.

Receipts for showings in foreign markets were not available at Box Office Mojo. However, with a production budget of $6 million, domestic receipts for the film showed success. The website indicated that it has shown at over 1,500 cinemas in the United States alone.

In the days before its DVD release, Johnson, who is now an outspoken pro-life advocate and mother, said in a Facebook video: "I am so excited to tell you guys that "Unplanned"—today and maybe for a while—is the Number 1 movie on Amazon. So, not even under a specific category, it's the Number 1 movie overall."

The DVD of "Unplanned" can be purchased at Walmart and Amazon, as well as other retailers. Autographed copies are available on Johnson's online store at abortionworker.com... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
