‘Transformers One’ sees $26M opening weekend, much slower than expected
On the other hand, Warner Bros.’ *Beetlejuice* remains strong in its third weekend. The movie should take in $24.75 million this weekend from 4,172 theaters. The film takes in $6.75 million today. The domestic box office total for *Beetlejuice* will probably cross $225.6 million by Sunday. That would make it the second-highest September release of all time, behind only 2017’s *It*, which opened at $328.8 million. *Beetlejuice* is also on track to outgross *Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings*, the 2021 film that went on to gross $224.5 million. For actress Jenna Ortega, this would be her biggest lead role, aside from her supporting part in *Iron Man 3*, which took in $409 million domestically.
