Project Hail Mary May Be An Oscar Contender, But It's Not Going To Open Big

In this video, John and the team discuss the latest box office forecasts from Deadline, highlighting a massive month ahead for cinema as Ryan Gosling’s Project Hail Mary and the horror sequel Ready or Not 2: Here I Come gear up for their March 20 debut. John breaks down the numbers behind the highly anticipated Andy Weir adaptation, which is currently tracking for a powerful $45M–$55M domestic opening—potentially marking a career-high for Gosling and a landmark win for Amazon MGM Studios. Meanwhile, John explores the early buzz for Ready or Not 2, which is eyeing a solid $11M+ start as Searchlight Pictures looks to outpace the original cult classic's debut. Join John as he analyzes whether these early projections signal a blockbuster spring and what this means for the 2026 box office race against upcoming heavyweights like Scream 7 and Hoppers.
