Weekend predictions: Civil War, Abigail and Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare tussling for top spot

April 19th, 2024

Civil War

Our forecasting model is predicting essentially a three-way tie at the top of the box office chart this weekend, with Civil War the marginal favorite to beat Abigail and The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare in the battle for top spot. The legs of each film will be essential in determining which one comes out the winner, with Abigail looking the most likely of the newcomers to challenge Civil War. Spy x Family Code: White, meanwhile, looks like it will be back in the pack. More...
