It’ll have both a comparatively lower budget (Hellboy cost $66 million in 2004 while Golden Army cost $85m in 2008) and an R-rating. So, come what may, this reboot is an attempt to turn Hellboy into a franchise on the third go-around.
This are the previous movies budget, dont think they put to much money on this one, when the others don't even break.
Dumbo will easily open bigger than Shazam. Shazam is as of now not even selling half of Aquaman's presales. And Aquaman only opened to 67M. So Shazam will open in the low 30Ms if nothing changes in buzz.
To remember this was a post just last weekend.
At this point Shazam!:
1. Lower budget SHM(-$100)
2. Cinemascore (A)
3. Critic (90+)
4. Fun, popcorn flick and family friendly
5. 50M+ OW

This was Dumbo last week and some around here make a prediction of 60M+.
I going to follow Shazam! Numbers this week and get a idea base on Dumbo numbers.
Both are family movies.
Remember this prediction from this pro-Disney outlet.
Dumbo is slower, old-fashioned family movie. A global opening between $137M-$155M is what we’re hearing at this point in town with overseas between $80M-90M and domestic projections literally wild: Disney thinks it’s in the $50Ms, others in the $60M-$65M range,
