"Ready or Not" Finds $ 2 Million On Opening Day – Variety

This figure includes $ 730,000 of Tuesday night previews. "Ready or Not" focuses on the wedding night of a bride who promises to be fatal when her new in-laws force her into a strange game of hide-and-seek. Samara Weaving stars is the wife who gets married in a rich family.

Directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, "Ready or Not" scored well with critics with a 91% "cool" score on Rotten Tomatoes. The audience gave the film a rating of CinemaScore from B +. The forecast for the low budget film was between $ 8 and $ 12 million for the first five days of release. Mark O'Brien, Adam Brody, Henry Czerny and Andie MacDowell are also on the bill.

Fox Searchlight will increase the number of "Ready or No" impressions to about 2,840 on Friday. "Ready or Not" will face the competition from Thursday night when the Lionsgate actor "Angel Has Fallen" will begin his screenings. "Angel" is looking to start between $ 12 and $ 16 million. Nick Butt and Morgan Freeman join Nick Nolte for the third installment of the Millennium-Lionsgate action franchise.

The Christian drama "Overcomer" creators of "War Room" will also open this weekend. Alex Kendrick interprets the scenario of a scenario that he co-wrote with his brother Stephen Kendrick about a high school coach whose faith is put to the test. The film is expected to yield about $ 6 million out of 1,500 locations.

The newcomers will fight against two hopes of Universal – the second weekend of the comedy "Good Boys", which exceeded $ 26 million in the first five days, and the fourth film of "Hobbs and Shaw ", which has exceeded $ 137 million in its first three weeks.
