Hoover Thriller 'Verity' Blasts Off with $4.5M Previews
2 Oct
Summary
- Verity's $4.5M preview gross positions it well for Colleen Hoover's second film adaptation.
- Tom Cruise's new film 'Digger' opened softly with $1.2M in previews.
- Verity's weekend outlook exceeds $30M, while 'Digger' may struggle to reach $10M.
Amazon MGM Studio's adaptation of Colleen Hoover's novel 'Verity' has grossed $4.5 million in overall previews. This figure positions the film favorably, expected to be the author's second-highest novel-to-screen adaptation at the box office. The preview performance exceeded that of 'Reminders of Him,' which took in $1.9 million earlier this year, but fell short of the $7 million previews achieved by 'It Ends With Us.'
Industry projections indicate a strong weekend opening for 'Verity,' with an outlook of over $30 million. This comes as news emerged regarding leadership changes at Warner Bros., coinciding with a soft debut for their film 'Digger.' The satire, starring Tom Cruise and directed by Alejandro Iñárritu, garnered only $1.2 million in previews and is expected to struggle, potentially not exceeding $10 million in its North American opening weekend.
