Universal and Illumination's "Minions: The Rise of Gru" is setting off fireworks at the Fourth of July box office, projecting a $129.2-million opening over the four-day holiday weekend from 4,400 locations in the US.
LOS ANGELES — It's official: the Minions are back.
Should the "Minions" sequel fulfill its current projections, the film will shatter the Fourth of July weekend box office record. Paramount's "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" currently stands as the highest grossing earner for an Independence Day four-day frame—the 2011 blockbuster grossed $115.9 million over the period.
With little competition for kid-friendly films on the immediate horizon, Universal hopes that "Minions: The Rise of Gru" enjoys a long run at the summer box office. Word-of-mouth should be strong, as audiences bestowed the film an "A" rating through research firm Cinema Score, indicating enthusiastic approval.
"Maverick," which was co-financed and co-produced by Skydance, should take silver at the Fourth of July weekend box office. The film will expand its domestic gross to $572 million through Monday, continuing to push the ceiling higher on its run as 2022's highest grossing domestic release. Universal's "Jurassic World Dominion" is eyeing a fourth place finish, dropping a modest 39% from its outing last weekend. Though the film is billed as the finale to the "Jurassic" franchise, "Dominion" should expand its domestic haul to $336 million through Monday, indicating that there's still plenty of gas in the tank for the dinosaur-centric property.
