Wicked producer Marc Platt gives an update on progress and that 2016 release date

Universal already has an untitled Illumination film on December 21st so that they could use that slot for Wicked or Christmas Day 2016.

There are 14 films hoping to gross like 150m+ DOM in June and July (expanded to 17 if we include the last week of May and first week of August). Obviously no way they can all hit what studios are hoping and there will be several casualties. What do we think those are? Here are the 17, with my current floor/ceiling ranges:

 

Alice Through the Looking Glass: 150-225

X-Men: Apocalypse: 240-300

TMNT 2: 125-175

The Conjuring 2: 60-100

Now You See Me 2: 55-85 (first was liked but marketing looks horrid, and I think the first was one of those better as a stand alone films)

Warcraft: 35-70

Central Intelligence: 100-150

Finding Dory: 375-500

Independence Day 2: 150-275

The BFG: 60-150 (hope it does well but could be a big casualty of the competition)

The Legend of Tarzan: 50-125

The Secret Life of Pets: 250-350

Ghostbusters: 100-200

Ice Age 5: 80-160

Star Trek Beyond: 125-225

Bourne  5: 150-250

Suicide Squad: 200-450 (lol, yeah that's my range)

Take the lower end on just about every single one of those

Rogue One is going to destroy all these other 2016 releases.   As I posted elsewhere, it sure looks to me like the Star Wars name alone can account for $500M, unless the reviews are absolutely terrible.  What other 2016 has a shot at $500M?  IF batman v. superman is amazing (and it sure doesn't look that way so far), it could be in the conversation for it.  Finding Dory will fall short of it, as every other Pixar film has.  ID2 -- nah, doesn't have the insane franchise appeal for Jurassic Park (and I still cannot believe JW's numbers .....)

 

Frankly, I don't see any other film in the 2016 line-up with the kind of built-in appeal and immediate box office demand that Rogue One will have, just off of the SW frenzy created by TFA.   And if Rogue One really delivers, LOOK OUT for Ep. VIII's opening.....

Yeah, I don't see any scenario Rogue One doesn't win the year outside of poor reception. If Vader is there, then it is literally locked and nothing else stands a chance.

After 2015 a marvel movie really needs to win
