Oscar Predictions: She Rides Shotgun

Taron Egerton headlines the dark crime thriller She Rides Shotgun from director Nick Rowland, out in limited release this weekend. The supporting cast includes Rob Yang, John Carroll Lynch, Odessa A’Zion, and David Lyons in the adaptation of a 2017 novel by Jordan Harper.

Yet it’s 11-year-old Ana Sophia Heger that is drawing the attention of numerous critics who put the pic at 81% on Rotten Tomatoes and 73 on Metacritic. Shotgun won’t be an Oscar player.

Until Dawn Box Office Prediction

After venturing into superhero territory with Shazam! and its sequel, David F. Sandberg reenters horror territory with Until Dawn on April 25th. Inspired by the 2015 PlayStation game, Ella Rubin, Michael Cimino (not the late Deer Hunter and Heaven’s Gate director), Odessa A’Zion, Ji-young Yoo, Belmont Cameli, and Peter Stormare star.

This survival scare fest from the filmmaker behind Lights Out and Annabelle: Creation is a test of Sony’s marketing muscle. The PS game did well and that could bleed over to cinematic sales. However, reaction to the trailer has been rather weak. Unless I’m grossly underestimating the draw of its source material, this may fail to reach $10 million.

Until Dawn opening weekend prediction: $7.8 million
