Universal and Amblin’s “Disclosure Day” is projected to earn $42.5 million in its opening three-day weekend, according to Deadline. The film is on track for the best-ever start for a Spielberg and Amblin original movie, following $6.5 million in domestic previews on Thursday night.

Why is “Disclosure Day” exceeding expectations?

Early Friday sales indicate the film will add $12 million to its total, pushing the opening weekend estimate up from an initial $35 million to $42.5 million, Deadline reports. The movie earned a B CinemaScore and is expected to generate over $30 million overseas.

Why is "Disclosure Day" exceeding expectations?

These figures suggest a global start of at least $70 million. However, the film faces a high threshold for profitability. Deadline notes a $115 million production budget and $80 million spent on marketing, meaning the film likely needs to earn approximately $300 million worldwide to break even.

Curry Barker’s “Obsession” takes second place. It is expected to fall 29% in its fifth weekend to earn $18 million, bringing its domestic total to $187.3 million. According to Deadline, the film will overtake the total of “Get Out” this weekend.

“Scary Movie” ranks third, though it is projected to plummet 72% in its second weekend to $15.2 million. “Backrooms” follows in fourth place with $12.4 million.

“Masters of the Universe” sits in fifth place. Deadline reports a 68% drop in its second weekend to $9.8 million, bringing its total to $47.4 million.

Existing films may see a sharp decline in earnings next week. Disney and Pixar’s “Toy Story 5” is scheduled to open and is reportedly on track for a domestic opening weekend between $150 million and $175 million, according to Deadline.
