Universal's "Him" opened in second place at the box office, earning $6.47 million on Friday, behind "Demon Slayer". While projected for a $15 million opening weekend, this falls short of initial expectations and received a poor C- CinemaScore. Sony's "A Big Bold Beautiful Journey" underperformed, earning only $1.4 million and failing to reach the top five. "Demon Slayer" is projected to maintain its leading position, while other films like "The Conjuring: Last Rites" and "The Long Walk" continue their runs. Angel Studios' "The Senior" also debuted this weekend.
