Box: It's DownTON Abbey, not DownTOWN! Get it right or Dame Maggie Smith will fuck you up!

1. Ad Astra - $20m / $20m / $65m
2. It: Chapter 2 - $19m / $181m / $215m
3. Hustlers - $18.5m / $64m / $100m
4. Downton Abbey - $18m / $18m / $60m
5. Rambo: Last Blood - $17m / $17m / $40m
6. The Lion King - $3m / $538m / $543m
7. Angel Has Fallen - $2.5m / $65m / $69m
**Good Boys - $2.5m / $77m / $81m

Nothing else will top $1.5m probably.

Three openers, and the top 5 could be anyone's guess. Some are predicting Rambo to be #1, which certainly seems possible. And ever after a hit in Once Upon a Time In Hollywood, Pitt could still struggle with the likely-to-be-divisive Ad Astra. Downton Abbey has generated a big deal of early ticket sales, and screenings last week were well attended. Hustlers' went big last weekend, but will that B- Cinemascore hurt it? This would be a fun weekend to be in a box-office contest because any of the top 5 could be #1.
