Box Office Report: ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’ Brings In $100M+
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice seems poised for a strong opening! With a $38M first day including previews and a projected $90M-$95M for the opening weekend, it looks like it’s tapping into a lot of excitement. The potential to hit $40M-plus on the first day and $100M-plus for the weekend would be a fantastic debut.
The key will be how well it sustains that momentum with walk-up business, which often depends on word-of-mouth and continued audience interest. Given the cult status of the original Beetlejuice and the buzz surrounding the sequel, it seems like it’s got a solid shot at hitting those high numbers.
A B+ CinemaScore isn’t too shabby, especially for a sequel to a beloved classic like Beetlejuice. It’s a solid score that indicates generally positive feedback from audiences, even if it’s not an A. Blockbusters can definitely build off B+ scores, particularly if they have strong franchise appeal and star power, which seems to be the case here.
It’s interesting to see how different factors are driving interest. Jenna Ortega and Winona Ryder seem to be big draws, along with the franchise’s legacy and the cast. Tim Burton’s involvement and Michael Keaton’s return are also key attractions. The variety in reasons why people are excited—whether for the actors, the director, or the franchise—suggests a broad appeal.
The mix of nostalgia and new elements often creates a complex audience reception. With those factors in play, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice might continue to attract and maintain interest, especially if it resonates with fans and builds on the existing fan base.
Are you planning to catch it on opening weekend?
