Weekend Estimates: Dragons Roar, Holdovers Can’t Soar

How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World isn’t quite matching Friday’s projections, but it is still dominating the weekend box office with an estimated $55.53 million Friday through Sunday, and $58.03 million in total if you include the paid previews. This is by far the biggest opening of the year, topping Glass by $15 million and the film is already in the top five for 2019. Internationally, it debuted in first place in Russia with $11.2 million, pushing its weekend haul to $34.7 million, while its international running tally rose to $216.9 million. It is already the biggest worldwide hit of the year, at least it is the biggest Hollywood hit at the global box office.

Interestingly, two of these films are being released by Vertical Entertainment: The Changeover and Prosecuting Evil: The Extraordinary World of Ben Ferencz. More...
