Disneyâs announcement earlier this week that it is moving its upcoming MCU releases into 2021, starting with Black Widow taking over Shang Chiâs previous slot on May 7, was a body-blow to the theatrical business. Octoberâs release schedule is now looking very thin indeed. November isnât looking much better, and thereâs a high probability that at least one of No Time to Die, Soul, and The Croods: A New Age will slip from their current planned release dates.

This weekend has four films technically opening wide: the re-release of The Empire Strikes Back, Shortcut (an Italian horror movie from Gravitas Ventures, opening in around 600 locations), and two movies honoring Ruth Bader Ginsberg, On the Basis of Sex and RBG. However, all of them are such special cases that they donât fit our prediction model. Instead, Iâll focus on a rare piece of good news: films currently playing in theaters are showing better week-to-week legs than was the case before the pandemic. More...

Once Warner Bros. has not announced a theater count for Tenet as it enters its fourth week in theaters, but it is expected to remain the widest release. Star Wars: Ep. V: The Empire Strikes Back turned 40 this year, and Disney is giving it a slightly late birthday party by releasing it this weekend nationwide in 2,097 theaters. The only new wide release this weekend is Shortcut from Gravitas Ventures, which is estimated to arrive on just over 600 screens. Infidel sees an increase in theaters this week, going from 1,724 last week, to 1,885 this week, while The New Mutants decreases theaters after debuting in late August. Reappearing in theaters this week are special showings of On the Basis of Sex, which will be playing in 829 theaters, and RBG, which is expected to be in about the same.

It looks as though weâll have another down weekend for total domestic box office, with perhaps $11 million in combined ticket sales for all movies, compared to $12.3 million last weekend, but there are a few small grains of good news to be found. Infidel topped (very modest) expectations, with a projected opening of $1.5 million, and the four other films still playing in wide release that have reported so far all had relatively good holds by historical standards. Tenet hit the $250 million mark worldwide, but Mulan continues to struggle.
