Last weekend’s winner, the animated kids film Hotel Transylvania 3, will be close behind the new releases, dropping from last weekend’s $44 million debut to pick up around $24-$26 million in its second frame.
The estimated box office returns of $30-$36 million should be enough to eclipse The Equalizer 2, which is estimated to bring in $26 million.
Proving that you can never underestimate the power of ABBA and the efficacy of counter-programming, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again is poised to take first place according to Deadline.
Dwayne Johnson’s Skyscraper will likely drop around 50% to land somewhere in the $12-$13 million range.
