‘Venom: The Last Dance’ Trips Stateside With $51M Opening, But Makes Up For Shortfall Abroad – Sunday AM Update


'Venom: The Last Dance' is set to make $8M in Thursday night previews at the domestic box office on its way to a $65M opening.

Recently Warner Bros’ Joker: Folie a Deux posted $7M previews before falling apart to a $37.6M opening — however that movie was sold under false pretenses to the fanboys, hence the D CinemaScore because they weren’t expecting to be knocked in the head by a musical. Venom: The Last Dance, directed by the franchise’s co-scribe Kelly Marcel in her behind the camera debut, is booked at 4,125 theaters. Also opening this weekend is Focus Features Edward Berger directed Vatican thriller, Conclave, and A24’s We Live in Time, which is going super wide at 2,000 theaters in its third frame.
