Plus, ’Dragon Ball Super: Broly’ comes out of nowhere to score $17 million in its first five days.
M. Night Shyamalan’s Glass is poised to earn around $40.5 million in its first weekend of release, and about $48 million for the four-day weekend. It makes it the third highest grossing release over Martin Luther King Jr. holiday ever, behind American Sniper ($107 million) and Kevin Hart’s Ride Along ($48.6 million). It’s also poised to record the third best opening ever for M. Night Shyamalan, behind only Signs ($60 million) and The Village ($50 million). It even scored slightly better than Shyamalan’s previous effort, Split, which earned $40 million over its first three days of release on its way to $138 million. It’s also set to be the third biggest opening for a Blumhouse picture, behind only the Halloween reboot and Paranormal Activity 3. Moreover, Shyamalan pulled this off with a relatively skimpy $20 million budget.
