This Thanksgiving weekend is offering a box office feast with two genres that have been lacking on the menu so far this year: family movies and non-franchise films aimed at adults.
Disney's"Encanto," an animated film featuring music written by"Hamilton" creator Lin-Manuel Miranda, is expected to have a $35 million domestic opening over the five-day holiday — enough to win the weekend. As for MGM's"House of Gucci," a true crime film starring Lady Gaga and Adam Driver, that film could slide into the No. 2 spot.
On the other end of the spectrum, a big weekend from"House of Gucci" could act as a rare success among adult dramas this year.If you look at the top ten films of the year, eight of the ten are films either from a franchise, like"Black Widow," or a sequel, like"No Time to Die," with"Free Guy" and"Jungle Cruise" being the only two outliers.
