DISNEY’S ALAADIN ‘SHINES BRIGHT’ AT WEEKEND BOXOFFICE
Disney’s Aladdin topped the weekend with an impressive debut, delivering over $85 million for the three-day and is expected to top $100 million for the four-day, Memorial Day holiday weekend.
Meanwhile, fellow newcomers Brightburn and Booksmart finished more in line with studio expectations than Mojo’s aggressive pre-weekend forecast and Avengers: Endgame will become only the second film ever to top $800 million at the domestic box office by the end of the long holiday weekend.
With an estimated $86.1 million, Disney’s Aladdin topped the Memorial Day three-day weekend box office. For Disney this is something of a big win considering the studio’s live action properties, outside of the Marvel Universe, have struggled for some time now.
Disney anticipates the reportedly $180+ million production will top $105 million for the four-day weekend, though rival studios expect that total to go even higher, targeting a four-day debut over $110 million, which would be enough to make it.
