By Daniel Garris
| Disney’s Aladdin took in $7.456 million on Wednesday to lead the daily box office for a sixth consecutive day. Aladdin was down 37.9 percent from Tuesday’s performance. The six-day launch for
Aladdin stands at a significantly stronger than expected $136.277 million. That is 18.3 percent ahead of the $115.168 million six-day start of last year’s Solo: A Star Wars Story and 8.9 percent ahead of the
$125.094 million six-day take of 2016’s The Jungle Book. With the aid of strong word of mouth, BoxOfficeReport is predicting a second weekend take of $44.5 million for Aladdin this weekend. |
| Lionsgate and Summit’s John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum held steady in second place with $2.126 million. That represented a 33.5 percent decrease from Tuesday and a sizable, but understandable
48.7 percent decline from last Wednesday. John Wick: Chapter 3 has grossed a stronger than expected $112.938 million through thirteen days. That is a very impressive 75.9 percent ahead of the $64.221 million thirteen-day haul
of 2017’s John Wick: Chapter 2. BoxOfficeReport is predicting that John Wick: Chapter 3 – Parabellum will gross $12.0 million in its third weekend. |
| Disney’s Avengers: Endgame grossed $1.289 million to remain in third place on Wednesday. Avengers: Endgame was down 31.0 percent from Tuesday and down a very solid 35.4 percent from last Wednesday.
With a massive 34-day gross of $806.552 million, Avengers: Endgame continues to pad its status as the second highest grossing film of all-time domestically. BoxOfficeReport is predicting a sixth weekend take of $9.0 million for
Avengers: Endgame. |
| Warner and Legendary’s Pokémon Detective Pikachu took in $1.117 million to continue to claim fourth. Detective Pikachu was down 35.8 percent from Tuesday and down just 33.1 percent from last
Wednesday. With a 20-day gross of $122.927 million, Detective Pikachu is running just behind the $125.002 million grossed by Shazam! after twenty days earlier this year. BoxOfficeReport is predicting that
Pokémon Detective Pikachu will gross $6.7 million in its fourth weekend. |
| United Artists Releasing’s Booksmart and Sony’s Brightburn remained close to one another with respective fifth and sixth place daily grosses of $729,723 and $692,922. Through six days Brightburn
has grossed $11.406 million, while Booksmart has grossed a similar $10.433 million. Both films continue to perform on the lower end of their respective expectations. BoxOfficeReport is predicting respective second weekend takes
of $4.0 million for Booksmart and $3.2 million for Brightburn. |
