Preview grosses in 1,885 theater on Thursday evening
Universal is looking to take the next two spots with Tesla and last week's new release of Dolittle. Tenetdipped a bit more than we expected last weekend, which leaves us wondering whether this week will see a much more balanced hold or a drop even further for what is looking like a definite Best Picture front-runner. With the film adding even more theaters this weekend, right now we're going out with a forecast around $13-14 million as we expect it to top $100 million by the end of the weekend.
As for Come Play, that's an interesting one as opening weekend audiences seemed to like what they saw despite the fact critics were not at all kind. The opening weekend performance was a bit higher than expected last weekend, but we can't go any higher than an $11 million forecast this weekend, expecting the film to finish around $43 million or so domestically by the end of the weekend.
