‘Barbie’ & ‘Oppenheimer’ Combined Second Weekend Of $107M + Could Lock Out Disney’s ‘Haunted Mansion’ – Box Office Preview
deadline.comWe knew Warner Bros’ Barbie and Universal’s Oppenheimer were going to be big, but not this big. Paramount’s Tom Cruise sequel Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One learned that the hard way (-65% weekend 2 decline with $19.3M) by going one weekend before the dual tidal wave, trying to avoid the wake of what we all thought was going to be the summer’s biggest hit in Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny over July 4th weekend.
These tickets for Barbie and Oppenheimer won’t punch themselves, so expect a second weekend of $72M (-55%) for the Mattel doll, and $35M for Oppenheimer which will stay strong with an expected -56% ease with locks on 400 Imax auditoriums.
Combined the two movies will count a weekend around $107M. Even though Barbie loses her PLF screens to Disney’s Haunted Mansion, which count 200 including Dolby Vision, don’t expect America’s blonde to bust a heel.
