In order to boost the box office, "Transformers: Rise of the Beasts" is aiming for an opening weekend gross of $50 million to $60 million.
As the Paramount Pictures movie debuts on Friday in 3,700 North American theaters, there's a potential that initial ticket sales will increase. But the most recent Autobot adventure is anticipated to struggle against Sony's "Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse," which won last weekend. The animated comic book sequel made $120 million in its first weekend and is expected to make an additional $45 million to $55 million in its second. That is almost twice what the first installment of "Into the Spider-Verse," which debuted in 2019, brought in. Spidey still has it, yes.
"Transformers: Rise of the Beasts," a $200 million movie with a PG-13 rating and directed by Steven Caple Jr. ("Creed II"), cost $200 million. To justify that expensive price tag, it will need to continue showing in domestic theaters and find success abroad.
On a positive side, the movie, which is the seventh in the "Transformers" series, is predicted to outperform the first two installments, "Bumblebee" from 2018 ($21.6 million) and "The Last Knight" from 2017 ($44.68 million). Nearly 70% of the total ticket sales for those movies, which peaked at $127 million and $130 million in North America, respectively, came from foreign territories.
Since "Age of Extinction" ($1.104 billion) in 2014, the "Transformers" films haven't easily passed the $1 billion mark, which was a sign of the franchise's peak popularity. While "The Last Knight" concluded its run with $605 million, "Bumblebee" (which cost a little less at $135 million) fell short of that mark. As long as there is continued interest in the series around the world, analysts anticipate the newest installment will come in between its most recent predecessors.
Anthony Ramos and Dominique Fishback may be seen in the movie "Rise of the Beasts," which follows Optimus Prime and the Autobots as they battle a danger that has the power to wipe out the entire planet. Reviews tend to be unfavorable, with Variety's Owen Gleiberman delivering one of the more encouraging assessments of the picture.
The writer praised the film's sympathetic human plot and sustained dialogue, saying that "the robots felt more real to me as characters than they usually do."
