This weekend, the superhero adventure goes up against three wildly different films, Universal’s The Mummy reboot, A24’s thriller It Comes At Night and Bleecker Street’s true story adaptation Megan Leavey.
Box Office Mojo reports that The Mummy reboot is slated to open in 4,000 theaters, and while both It Comes at Night and Megan Leavey are expected to debut in wide release, no theater count projections were given yet.
We’re predicting that The Mummy will ultimately give Wonder Woman a run for its money, but will come up short with an opening weekend of $45.2 million.
The studio’s 1999 version of The Mummy, starring Brendan Fraser, earned $43.3 million, with its sequel, 2001’s The Mummy Returns opening much bigger with $68.1 million and the 2002 spin-off The Scorpion King taking in $36 million.
