Ke Huy Quan dodging knives in Love Hurts
The domestic box office is bracing for impact this Super Bowl weekend, with the holdover animated film Dog Man poised to retain its crown after topping the charts in its debut. Dog Man grossed $3.2 million on its second Friday, and is aiming for a $20 million sophomore weekend. The movie exceeded expectations in its debut, grossing a healthy $36 million. It will pass the $50 million mark by Sunday, while the week's new releases struggle to compete.
The number one spot on Friday was claimed by Heart Eyes, a romantic comedy slasher film directed by Josh Ruben and featuring Olivia Holt and Mason Gooding in the central roles. Heart Eyes generated $3.7 million on its opening day, including the $1.1 million that it made in Thursday previews that began at around 2 p.m. The movie is expected to gross around $10 million across the weekend, which is in the same range as the recent horror film Companion.
The week's other new offering, Love Hurts, didn't fare as well. Starring the Oscar-winners Ke Huy Quan and Ariana DeBose, the action-comedy grossed around $2.4 million on opening day; the figure also includes preview grosses. The movie is expected to generate around $6 million over the weekend, which isn't very encouraging. Love Hurts opened to poor reviews, and is currently languishing with a 19% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
'Mufasa: The Lion King' and 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' Fought a Tight Race Close The top five list on Friday was rounded out by the holdovers Companion and Mufasa: The Lion King. The horror film, starring Sophie Thatcher and Jack Quaid, grossed a little over $1 million on its third Friday, and the big-budget Disney sequel trailed by only $50,000. Companion has so far generated $13 million domestically, and should pass the $15 million mark by Sunday.
