TransformersRiseOfTheBeasts rolls out an impressive debut at the domestic box office.
The noise of clanging metal is set to drown out everything else in theaters this weekend, but not if a certain friendly neighborhood superhero has anything to say about it. Paramount’s Transformers: Rise of the Beasts won the Friday box office with a $25 million debut, including $8 million from Thursday previews, setting it up for a closely-contested clash with holdover hit Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse for the top spot this weekend.
The seventh installment in the blockbuster franchise, which has witnessed several ups and downs after debuting in 2007, Rise of the Beasts is expected to start a new trilogy of Transformers movies for Paramount. On its first day alone, the movie has surpassed the opening weekend haul of its predecessor, 2018’s Bumblebee, which ended up grossing $127 million domestically and $465 million worldwide — the lowest hauls in the franchise’s history, despite delivering the best reviews.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Rise of the Beasts, starring Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback, is currently projected to deliver a $60 opening weekend, which marks an improvement over Transformers: The Last Knight’s $44 million opening in 2017. By comparison, the first film of the franchise — 2007’s Transformers — grossed $70 million in its opening weekend.
Across the Spider-Verse added $16 million on its second Friday, and is on track to deliver a $58 million sophomore weekend. This sets up an interesting race for number one this weekend, and even a slight deviation from projections could end with a different movie taking pole position. Across the Spider-Verse vastly exceeded expectations in its debut weekend, grossing a spectacular $120 million. By Sunday, the movie is projected to hit $226 million at the domestic box office.
The Top Five Was Dominated by Holdovers Taking the fourth spot after debuting at number three last weekend, the horror title The Boogeyman added $2.1 million on Friday, taking its running domestic total to $20 million. Originally destined for streaming, the movie hasn’t been able to perform at the level of other recent horror hits — Evil Dead Rise and Smile, to name a couple — that were also diverted to theaters following positive test screenings.
