FRIDAY PM: Disney/Pixar Studios’ Toy Story 5 is holding onto No. 1, as we knew it would, but pre-weekend estimates were a bit high. The second weekend now is looking more like $74M at 4,425 sites, which would get the Andrew Stanton-directed animated mover over the $300M domestic in 10 days. And that’s nothing to whine about.
The pic’s second Friday is looking like $22M. At $74M, that’s a -54% second-weekend hold, which is close to the -56% second weekend hold of Incredibles 2 ($80.3M), which was coming off the record domestic opening for an animated movie ($182.6M).
