The prolific Guy Ritchie’s latest action thriller is In the Grey. The Black Bear distributed production looks to make its mark at multiplexes on May 15th. Henry Cavill and Eiza González (who costarred in the filmmaker’s 2024 effort The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare) headline here along with Guy Ritchie’s The Covenant lead Jake Gyllenhaal. The supporting cast also includes Kristopher Hivji, Fisher Stevens, and Rosamund Pike.
Those aforementioned earlier Ritchie pics (his last two titles to hit theaters) could be decent comps. Warfare slightly exceeded expectations with a $9 million start in 2024. In 2023, The Covenant performed in line with its anticipated range at just over $6 million. I don’t see anything from Grey‘s advertising that indicates it’ll break out. This could’ve easily been a streaming debut like Ritchie’s Apple TV adventure Fountain of Youth from last year.
I’ll project this fall slightly under what The Covenant achieved.
In the Grey opening weekend prediction: $5.9 million
