The box office is heating up with new releases and re-releases vying for attention. Marvel's "Avengers: Endgame Encore" made $3.8 million in previews, which is a significant amount considering it's a re-release. This suggests that fans are still eager to see the epic conclusion to the Avengers saga on the big screen, and it could pose a threat to "Resident Evil" at the top spot.
Robert Pattinson's "Primetime" also had a decent start with $2.7 million in previews. While the amount is not staggering, it's worth noting that Pattinson has a dedicated fan base, and the film's performance will be interesting to watch. The real question is how these new releases will impact "Resident Evil," which dominated the box office last week. If "Avengers: Endgame Encore" and "Primetime" perform well, it could signal a shift in audience preferences.
What's next to watch is how these films perform on their opening weekends. Will "Resident Evil" hold onto its top spot, or will one of the new challengers dethrone it? Additionally, it's worth keeping an eye on the long-term performance of "Avengers: Endgame Encore," as its success could pave the way for more re-releases of popular films. The box office is always unpredictable, but one thing is certain - it's going to be an interesting few weeks.
