Nor is Disney\u2019s family comedy <em>Freakier Friday<\/em> helping matters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Nobody 2<\/em>, about a seemingly average suburban dad who leads a double life as a stealth operative, is on course to open on the lower end of expectations with $9.4 million after receiving a B+ CinemaScore from audiences (its audience ranking on Rotten Tomatoes is more promising at 92 percent).<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>More from The Hollywood Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The first <em>Nobody<\/em> opened amid the pandemic to $6.8 million on its way to grossing a pleasing $68 million domestically. The sequel cost a modest $26 million to make before marketing, so no one at Universal is losing sleep, since it is sure to make up ground when hitting premium VOD as early as three weeks from now (the studio has perfected the art of PVOD).<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">From New Line and Warner Bros., <em>Weapons<\/em> will have no trouble staying No. 1 with as much as $25 million in its sophomore outing, a mere 42 percent drop. That\u2019s no easy feat for a horror film, and cements the film\u2019s status as a water-cooler sensation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The female-skewing <em>Freakier Friday<\/em>, reteaming Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan, is likewise grinning in its sophomore outing with an estimated haul $14 million to $15 million for a respectable drop in the 50 percent range.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Nobody 2<\/em> isn\u2019t the weekend\u2019s only new player, but is by far doing the best of the bunch.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Spike Lee\u2019s prestige pic <em>Highest 2 Lowest<\/em>, which reunites him for <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/articles\/why-took-35-years-spike-184637844.html\" data-ylk=\"slk:the first time in years with Denzel Washington;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">the first time in years with Denzel Washington<\/a>, is opening in select theaters before being made available relatively quickly on Apple TV+.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The movie is from Apple Original Films, with A24 handling its release in 220 theaters, or thereabouts. So far, A24 isn\u2019t reporting grosses but rival distributors with access to numbers from at least 15 theaters show it on course to earn an estimated $894,000 for the weekend, based on their modeling. That would put its per-location average at a tepid $4,062. (To put things in perspective, the projected location average for <em>Weapons<\/em>, which is playing in 3,450 cinemas, is north of $7,200. And <em>Freakier Friday<\/em>, booked in 3,975 cinemas, is looking at an estimated location average of $4,000.) Generally speaking, a specialty film\u2019s location average should be notably more when there is such a disparity in the number of theaters.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The Lionsgate-distributed <em>Americana<\/em> \u2014 starring Sydney Sweeney opposite Paul Walter Hauser and Halsey \u2014 is all-out bombing in its nationwide debut in 1,100 theaters. The pic is expected to take in around $840,000 for a paltry per-theater average of $460 and a sixteenth-place finish. The crime-heist movie, which has been well received by critics, has taken more than two years to arrive on the big screen after first premiering at SXSW in 2023.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><strong>Best of The Hollywood Reporter<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Sign up for <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/cloud.email.hollywoodreporter.com\/signup\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:THR's Newsletter;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">THR&#8217;s Newsletter<\/a>.
