Box Office: ‘Sonic the Hedgehog 3’ Dashes to $25.7 Million Opening Day, ‘Mufasa: The Lion King’ Trails With $13.3 Million
'Sonic the Hedgehog 3' will top box office charts in its opening weekend, as Disney's 'Mufasa: The Lion King' prequel takes a distant second.
In what some expected to be a more even box office match-up between two family-friendly features starring CG critters, Paramount’s “Sonic” sequel has broken out far ahead of “Mufasa” in its debut. The 2019 remake roared to over $1 billion overseas and this prequel is expected to top the international box office this weekend (“Sonic 3” doesn’t open in most territories until Christmas). Fifth place will go to Angel Studios’ “Homestead,” a faith-based drama that follows an encampment surviving after an apocalyptic attack on the United States and that — spoilers — serves as a stealth pilot of sorts for a new television series, which it proudly showcases at the end of the film.
