Green Lantern (3D) is off to a solid start. Film opened with almost the same numbers as
Thor (3D) and
X-Men: First Class (2D), and now new reports are saying that comic book adaptation is set to get another $20M for Friday.
From
The Hollywood Reporter:
"Warner Bros.' 3D superhero pic Green Lantern -- starring Ryan Reynolds -- is on track to cross $20 million at the Friday box office, giving it a shot at a $57 million to $60 million debut over Father's Day weekend, according to early estimates. Friday's tally includes $3.4 million in midnight grosses."
I'm going to say it will finish with $55-56M by the end of the weekend. Not bad for a film panned by almost everyone. Also, expect a big drop next week since it's not getting good buzz and it will go against new PIXAR film,
Cars 2. How much do you think
Green Lantern will earn this weekend? Stay tuned for more updates.
