Everything's coming up Disney.The Jungle Bookswings in for a dominant first-place finish in the week
Everything's coming up Disney.
The Jungle Book swings in for a dominant first-place finish in the weekly box office tussle, with an estimated $103.6 million banked from Friday to Sunday.
SEE ALSO:'The Jungle Book' is a thrilling masterpiece with both art and heartThe live-action remake has drawn raves from across the critical spectrum. It also boasts a voice cast of proven crowd-pleasers -- including Bill Murray, Idris Elba, Lupita Nyong'o, Scarlett Johansson, Ben Kingsley and Christopher Walken -- that plays well outside the expected family-friendly crowd.
While it's not the biggest April opening in Hollywood history -- Furious 7 owns that record, with $147.2 million -- The Jungle Book's performance is good enough for second place. It's also a hit overseas, with around $187 million earned abroad over its first two weeks.
Fellow box office newcomerBarbershop: The Next Cut claims an easy #2 win, with an estimated $20.2 million weekend. Unless Sunday sales pick up, this 12-years-later follow-up will clock the lowest Barbershop opening to date (unless you count the 2005 spin-off, Beauty Shop).
Series-low or not, Barbershop's weekend is still more than strong enough to climb past last week's winner, The Boss. The comedy was star Melissa McCarthy's third #1 opening to date, but a critical drubbing and abysmal "C+" CinemaScore fueled what's shaping up to be a 60% slide into the second weekend's estimated $10.2 million take.
The Boss and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice are in a neck-and-neck race for mediocrity this week. The DC Comics blockbuster is eyeing an estimated $9 million weekend, which would be a 61.5% dip from last weekend's $23.4 million.
In terms of box office rankings, Boss and BvSare close enough that #3 could fall to anyone by Monday morning. But if it wasn't clear last week, it is now: BvS -- the movie on which Warner Bros. pinned its hopes for competing with the Marvel Cinematic Universe -- is irrelevant at the box office after less than a month in theaters.
Finally, in yet another win for Disney, seventh weekend veteran Zootopia looks to have scratched out enough -- an estimated $8.2 million in the #5 spot -- to climb past $300 million at the domestic box office. With more than $560 million already generated overseas, Zootopia could be Disney's tenth billion dollar movie of all time by the year's end.
Like we said at the start: Everything's coming up Disney.
