This weekend, the sly one returns to theatres to once again assault our senses. Will audiences have some expendable cash for aging action action heres? Here’s our prediction:
That means Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will hold onto the top spot at the box office for the second week in a row. Look for it to pull in around $25 million. Following in second should be Guardians of the Galaxy with $24 million. It’s going to be a tight race between those two, and they may wind up switching spots when it’s all said and done.
Closing out the top five will be two more new releases – buddy cop comedy Let’s Be Cops, which opened earlier this week, will grab fourth place with $14 million, while The Giver, a long gestating adaptation of the 1993 novel staring Jeff Bridges and Meryl Streep will debut in fifth with $12 million.
So, to recap, here are our predictions:
1) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles – $25 million
2) Guardians of the Galaxy – $24 million
3) The Expendables 3 – $22 million
4) Lets Be Cops – $14 million
5) The Giver – $12 million
