Can ‘Divergent: Allegiant’ Stop ‘Zootopia’ at the Box Office?
After a three-week stint atop the box office, 20th Century Fox's Deadpool was finally taken down by Disney's Zootopia earlier this month, which is putting together a solid run of its own. The animated comedy will go up against two new releases, Lionsgate's The Divergent Series: Allegiant and Miracles from Heaven in theaters this weekend, but, unlike the Merc With the Mouth, Zootopia isn't expected to reign supreme for a third week in a row. According to the projections at Pro.BoxOffice.com, The Divergent Series: Allegiant should come out on top in its first weekend in theaters. But perhaps not by a strong margin.The Divergent Series: Allegiant is projected to take in $37 million in its opening weekend, which would normally result in an easy win, but it all depends on how much Zootopia drops in its third frame. Last weekend, the animated blockbuster only dropped 31.9%, and if it drops that much again, it will earn $35.9 million, coming in a close second place in its third weekend. It's always difficult to predict how much a movie will drop from week to week, but Zootopia is a huge hit with critics, scoring a 99% "Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes, so Zootopia should do well with repeat viewing, and it wouldn't be surprising if it suffered another minimal drop.
Original ‘10 Cloverfield Lane’ Ending Is Not What You'd Expect
Back in January, many fans were surprised to see the first trailer for 10 Cloverfield Lane,
attached to prints of Paramount's 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of
Benghazi, since it was the first we've heard this title. While the title
was certainly new, the project itself was not, having gone into
development under titles such as Valencia and The Cellar. Now that the
movie opened in theaters this weekend, taking in an impressive $25.2
million, new details have surfaced from The Film Stage regarding the
original ending. There will be SPOILERS below, so if you haven't seen 10 Cloverfield Lane yet, read on at your own risk.
Shortly after the trailer debuted in January, a new report detailed how this film transformed from Valencia and The Cellar to 10 Cloverfield Lane. The project was put into development several years ago under the Paramount Insurge banner, a specialty division for micro-budget projects that cost under $5 million. The movie was completely shot and finished when the Insurge banner collapsed, and Paramount picked up the project. Writers Daniel Casey and Damien Chazelle performed re-writes so that it would connect to the Cloverfield universe, with reshoots happening in New Orleans last March.
