‘Mufasa’ Keeps Crown as Keke Palmer’s ‘One of Them Days’ Beats ‘Wolf Man’ in Box Office Surprise


Universal's "Wolf Man" reboot was projected to climb to No. 1 on domestic box office charts. Yet Sony's "One of Them Days" may have the last laugh.

Directed by Lawrence Lamont and produced by Issa Rae, the film follows two roommates who race against the clock to avoid eviction after one of their boyfriend’s steals their rent money. Christopher Abbot stars in director Leigh Whannell’s new take on the 1941 film about a man who gets bitten by a mysterious predator and begins to transform into a dangerous creature that soon jeopardizes the lives of his family. Whannell, whose credits include “Saw” and “Insidious,” steered Universal’s 2020 horror remake “The Invisible Man” to sleeper hit status and helped to revive the studio’s flailing monster-verse.
