A franchise-record opening weekend is certainly a good start for The Predator.
Venom will hit theaters in early October but that’s the next wide release movie that is likely to put up big box office numbers.
The other thing going for the film is that there really isn’t another studio tentpole release coming for the next couple of weeks, meaning that The Predator will be in a good position to rake in some box office dollars, assuming that the audience wants to throw money at it.
We’re hitting a point in the release calendar where the big budget movies take a bit of a break, at least until we get closer to the holiday season.
