Pixar's "Hoppers" made $3.2 million in early showings, while Warner Bros.' "The Bride" only brought in $1 million. Family movies have been doing well at the box office lately, and "Hoppers," which has gotten good reviews, is expected to keep that trend going. The movie, which is about animals, is set to make between $35 million and $40 million from 4,000 theaters this weekend. That should put it in first place. "Hoppers" cost $150 million to make, which is a lot, but it was made more cheaply than other Disney animated films, which usually cost $200 million. The $3.2 million from previews includes the $1 million it made on Saturday from early showings, plus the results from Thursday. Compared to other movies, "Hoppers" does well. It made more than "Kung Fu Panda 4" in previews, which was $3.8 million before it made $58 million on opening day. It also beat "Onward" from 2020, which made $2.7 million in previews and then earned $39.1 million.
"The Bride," a new version of "The Bride of Frankenstein" written and directed by Maggie Gyllenhaal, who was nominated for an Oscar, is not expected to do well.
The movie has a big $90 million budget, but it's only predicted to make around $10 million in its first week. If those numbers are right, it will be a big disappointment for Warner Bros. They've been having a good run with movies like "Sinners," "Weapons," and "Wuthering Heights."
However, "The Bride" might do better in other countries.
It's expected to make another $22 million from international markets when it opens in 69 countries. Christian Bale plays Frankenstein, and Jessie Buckley, who's up for an Oscar for "Hamnet," plays the undead woman he loves. Gyllenhaal moved the story to a steampunk version of 1930s Chicago and New York. The movie has mixed reviews. Some critics praised Gyllenhaal's bold ideas, while others thought it had a lot of noise but no real substance.
