The Big Picture After an exciting March at the domestic box office, with a couple of major films emerging victorious in their own right, the box office is shaping up to deliver an epic clash between the two sequels. Now entering its third week of release, Warner Bros.’ blockbuster Dune: Part Two will fight for the number one spot on the weekend chart with Universal’s Kung Fu Panda 4, which opened to strong numbers a week ago.
Speaking of soft drops, Dune: Part Two is expected to fall by just 35% in its third weekend, as it eyes around $28 million. The science-fiction sequel is expected to pass the $200 million mark domestically by Sunday, while also soaring past the $400 million milestone globally. Dune: Part Two also has a solid chance of overtaking the $433 million lifetime worldwide box office haul of its predecessor, Dune, which was released day and date in theaters and on streaming in mid-pandemic 2021.
The fifth spot went to Angel Studios’ Cabrini, which is looking at a little over $2.5 million in its second weekend, after grossing $837,000 on Friday. The film’s running domestic total will pass the $10 million mark by tomorrow. Elsewhere, A24’s Love Lies Bleeding is looking at around $2.3 million in its nationwide expansion this weekend, while Paramount’s holdover hit Bob Marley: One Love is inching closer to the $100 million mark, after a projected fifth weekend haul of $2.2 million.
