This article covers a developing story. Continue to check back with us as we will be adding more information as it becomes available. Summary Alien: Romulus is headed toward a historic opening weekend for the franchise. Directed by Fede Álvarez and starring Cailee Spaeny and David Jonsson, the movie follows scavengers who discover an alien menace on what they believe to be an abandoned space station.

Per Deadline, as of Saturday morning, Alien: Romulus is projected to earn a 3-day debut total between $40 and $42 million at the domestic box office. The movie is claiming the No. 1 spot on the chart, knocking the Marvel hit Deadpool & Wolverine to No. 2 after three weekends on top. This still a win for Disney, as the company owns both Marvel Studios and Alien's 20th Century Studios and thus has both the Top 2 movies this weekend.
