Where it turns up
Friday, July 1, 2022 July 4th weekend 2022
On the chart Elvis (wk 2): $18.5M, -41%
Expected 'Down about 40% for a 3 day in the high teens' Actual: $18.5M, -41%
In the note
So figure a 3 day in the mid (and maybe high) 20’s, with a 4 day just below or at 30. Elvis - This was neck and neck with Top Gun all week, and it’s holding pretty good today.
Friday, June 23, 2023 Fourth weekend of June 2023
In the note
The weekend should still break $100 million, but not by much, and it will be short of the Elvis/Black Phone weekend last year and about half of the Toy Story 4/Child’s Play weekend of 2019.
Friday, June 30, 2023 Final weekend of June 2023
In the note
Last year, both Top Gun Maverick and Elvis went to Cannes, and thought a rousing Cannes reception would polish the shine of the film.
Friday, October 20, 2023 Third weekend of October 2023
In the note
There’s a big difference between long films that appeal to the same demo like Elvis or Once Upon a Time in Hollywood that were both around 2 hrs and 40 mins, and this film.
