‘Moana 2′ Bests 2016 Original’s Total, Dancing To $55M+ Record, Will Cross $300M+ Alongside Wicked’, ‘Pushpa 2’ $10M+, ‘Y2K’ $2M+ – Friday PM Box Office
deadline.comFRIDAY PM: For all the chatter in years past about people getting distracted by holiday stuff, if there’s one thing that’s on their list this weekend, it’s going to the movies.
Disney’s Moana 2 will see a second weekend of $55M-$60M, the most any No. 1 movie has seen during the historically ratcheted down post-Thanksgiving period.
Again, anything over Frozen 2‘s post-Thanksgiving frame take of $35.1M back in 2019 is a record No. 1 take for this frame. This is after a second Friday that’s in the vicinity of $11M-$12M, which will get the sequel past the 2016’s original’s final stateside cume of $248.7M.
Second frame is -57% to -60% from pic’s opening weekend of $139.7M. Both Moana 2 and Wicked are expected to cross $300M this weekend, the latter sooner than the former.
