Paramount hopes audiences are in the mood for a scary story to watch in the dark when Passenger arrives in multiplexes on May 22nd. André Øvredal, who directed Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, is behind the camera with Jacob Scipio, Lou Llobell, and Melissa Leo in the cast.
The fright fest boasts an effective trailer and genre fans could turn out over the Memorial Day weekend. However, horror fans have had some options lately and Obsession could still be performing well in its sophomore frame based on word-of-mouth.
A gross above $10 million over the four-day is certainly feasible for its ceiling, but I’m going under.
Passenger opening weekend prediction: $6.3 million (Friday to Sunday); $7.3 million (Friday to Monday)
