The Lion King is set to Roar with US Opening Projected at $150 Million!!!
First Name Tom, Last Name Foolery… And I’m Everybody’s Uncle!
Especially everyone in this classic remake… The Lion King.
‘The Lion King’ looks set to take its throne at the US box office.
Unleashed globally on July 19th, Disney‘s live-action take on the classic tale is poised to pounce with record-breaking numbers.
Based on early tracking, the Jon Favreau production – which stars Donald Glover and Beyonce – is forecast to premiere with a US gross north of $150 million.
While the preliminary numbers can and often do fluctuate, many anticipate even higher sums for ‘The Lion King.’ Especially given its slay out of the gate with pre-sale tickets this week. Then there’s Disney’s colossal marketing campaign which is beginning to power into full-speed.
Should the figure climb even a hair higher, it’ll see the film become the highest grossing July debut (besting the $169 million opening of ‘Harry Potter And The Deathly Willows Part 2’).
We’re all sorts of amped for ‘The Lion King.’ Are you?
