Brad Pitt's Formula 1 movie is projected to dominate the box office this weekend, outperforming the sequel to the horror hit M3GAN. Industry predictions suggest a $40-$50 million domestic opening for the F1 film, exceeding expectations for M3GAN 2.0's $20 million-plus debut. The F1 film boasts strong presales and IMAX screenings, while M3GAN 2.0 faces a saturated horror market. Both films represent significant ventures for their respective studios, with Apple aiming to solidify its theatrical presence and Blumhouse continuing its horror success.
