Will BirdsOfPrey be another box office hit for DC?
” isn’t expected to debut to numbers near February record-holders like “Black Panther” , “Deadpool” or “Fifty Shades of Grey” when it launches this weekend, but strong word of mouth could help it thrive over coming weeks.
“It wasn’t until the 2010s that studios seemed more open to commit blockbuster films to the month that has, over the years, boasted a truly diverse array of films from every genre,” said Paul Dergarabedian, a senior media analyst with Comscore. “Warner Bros. will go all in on ‘Birds Of Prey,’ looking to ignite another February blockbuster spark at the box office.”
“Birds of Prey” — directed by Cathy Yan and written by Christina Hodson — is the only new wide release in theaters this weekend, so it won’t have much competition among ticket buyers. Another factor working in its favor: it’s been weeks since a studio has released a major movie and the box office is ripe for a hit.
