‘Bob Marley: One Love’ To Stay High As A Kite At Box Office Until ‘Dune’ Gang Arrives – Preview


Paramount's 'Bob Marley: One Love' will remain No. 1 in its second weekend with $15M+ despite newcomers 'Drive Away Dolls', 'Ordinary Angels' & 'Demon Slayer' movies

Focus Features’ Ethan Coen-directed femme comedy caper Drive-Away Dolls, Sony/Crunchyroll’s Demon Slayer: Kimetsu No Yaiba -To The Hashira Training and Lionsgate/Kingdom Story’s Ordinary Angels hit marquees on Friday but Paramount’s Bob Marley: One Love will smoke them all with a second weekend of$15M, about -45% down from the biopic’s 3-day of $28.6M. Ordinary Angels starring 2x Oscar winner Hilary Swank was previously scheduled to open on Oct. 13, but moved due to Taylor Swift: Eras Tour landing on that date, plus the actors’ strike was still ongoing. Written by Coen and Tricia Cooke, the movie follows Jamie (Qualley), an uninhibited free spirit bemoaning yet another breakup with a girlfriend, and her demure friend Marian (Viswanathan) who desperately needs to loosen up.
