Mickey 17 Box Office Prediction: How Much Will Robert Pattinson’s Movie Make?

by

As a die-hard cinema enthusiast, I’m buzzing with anticipation for the upcoming release of “Mickey 17” on March 7, directed by the brilliant Bong Joon-ho. This sci-fi thriller centers around a disposable clone worker who undergoes perilous assignments, only to be reborn each time he meets his demise, retaining memories from his past lives. The thought-provoking plot and Robert Pattinson leading the cast have everyone wondering if this film will be a blockbuster or if it might falter at the box office. Let’s delve into the predictions to see what we can expect.

How much is Bong Joon-ho’s Mickey 17 predicted to make at the box office?

According to Boxoffice Pro’s predictions, the upcoming film by Joon-Ho, titled Mickey 17, is expected to earn between $15 million and $20 million in its first domestic weekend.

As a fervent admirer, if these predictions prove accurate, Bong Joon-ho’s latest masterpiece will mark his most successful domestic launch yet. Nevertheless, the anticipated figures are significantly less than what we witnessed with major Warner Bros. sci-fi films such as Dune: Part Two and Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire, which debuted to impressive numbers of $82.5 million and $80 million respectively. The relatively modest expectations for Mickey 17 can be attributed to the fact that it’s an original film without a pre-existing fanbase or franchise backing.

As a die-hard fan, I’m bracing myself for some intense rivalry as Mickey 17 squares off against the formidable Captain America in Brave New World. This blockbuster just broke records with an impressive $88 million opening weekend, as per Forbes.

Will Mickey 17 be a hit or a flop?

Whether Mickey 17 succeeds or fails at the box office is still up in the air.

Initially scheduled for a 2024 release, Mickey 17 encountered a postponement due to the SAG-AFTRA strike. Nevertheless, early critiques have been predominantly favorable, commending its innovative directing, storytelling, social critique, and exceptional acting. As it’s director Joon-Ho’s first project since the Oscar-winning Parasite, there’s much excitement surrounding it and speculation about its potential box office success. However, it may encounter difficulties in terms of ticket sales, as it might not capture the same level of global interest as Parasite did.
