Daily Box Office Report
Wednesday, November 7, 2018
By Daniel Garris
| Fox’s Bohemian Rhapsody took in $3.938 million on Wednesday to lead the daily box office for a sixth consecutive day. That represented a solid 37.0 percent decline from Tuesday’s inflated Election Day
performance. The six-day start for Bohemian Rhapsody stands at a stronger than expected $65.633 million. The film is running 6.5 percent ahead of the $61.647 million grossed by A Star is Born after six days of wide
release, though Wednesday’s gross for Bohemian Rhapsody was below the $4.591 million first Wednesday gross of A Star is Born. BoxOfficeReport is predicting that Bohemian Rhapsody will gross $27.0 million in its
second weekend. |
| Warner’s A Star is Born was up two spots from Tuesday to move back into second place on Wednesday with $1.042 million. A Star is Born continues to display tremendous holding power, as the film was
down 26.7 percent from Tuesday and down just 20.0 percent from last Wednesday. A Star is Born has grossed $169.009 million after 34 days of release. That gives the film a current total gross to opening weekend ratio of
3.94 to 1. BoxOfficeReport is predicting a sixth weekend gross of $8.5 million for A Star is Born. |
| Disney’s The Nutcracker and the Four Realms was down one spot from Tuesday to land in third on Wednesday with $874,723. That represented a very sharp 65.5 percent decline from Tuesday, as family films
typically see the biggest Election Day boosts at the box office. The Nutcracker and the Four Realms has grossed $24.860 million in six days, which is in line with the film’s relatively modest expectations and places the film
29.0 percent behind the $34.994 million six-day haul of Disney’s Christopher Robin earlier this year. BoxOfficeReport is predicting a second weekend take of $11.2 million for The Nutcracker and the Four Realms. |
| Paramount’s Nobody’s Fool was down one spot and a sharp 52.1 percent from Tuesday to claim fourth place on Wednesday with $767,204. Nobody’s Fool has grossed $17.022 million in six days. That is on
the very low end of expectations and places the film 22.9 percent behind the $22.089 million six-day start of Tyler Perry’s Acrimony earlier this year. BoxOfficeReport is predicting that Nobody’s Fool will gross
$6.9 million in its second weekend. |
| Universal’s Halloween and Sony’s Venom placed in fifth and sixth with respective daily grosses of $560,030 and $531,708. Halloween was down 43.2 percent from Tuesday and down a massive
89.9 percent from last Wednesday’s inflated Halloween performance, while Venom declined 48.3 percent from Tuesday and decreased 44.9 percent from last Wednesday. Respective total grosses stand at $152.489 million for
Halloween in 20 days and at $200.858 million for Venom in 34 days. |
