Rebecca Rubin Film and Media Reporter “The Exorcist: Believer” looks to easily claim the No. 1 spot in its box office debut, but that almost wasn’t the case.
Universal and Blumhouse’s supernatural sequel, which is estimated to open to $30 million to $36 million from 3,600 North American theaters, was originally slated for next weekend to coincide with Friday the 13th (during the spookiest month of the year, no less).
But the film moved up a week to avoid the unexpected release of Taylor Swift’s “Eras Tour” concert film, which is projected to bring in at least $100 million to start… and would have clobbered “The Exorcist” in terms of ticket sales.
Now, “The Exorcist: Believer,” the sixth installment in the legacy franchise, has the benefit of having the weekend to itself, at least in terms of new nationwide offerings. “PAW Patrol: The Mighty Movie,” “Saw X” and other holdover titles will round out North American box office charts.
