Dwayne Johnson’s ‘Black Adam’ to Rule Over ‘Ticket to Paradise’

The comic book adventure "Black Adam," starring Dwayne Johnson, will dominate the weekend box office.

+ + +

+
+
+

Between Friday and Sunday, 4,350 North American cinemas are slated to host the Warner Bros. and DC Comics film, which is projected to gross at least $60 million worldwide.

+ + +

+
+
+

That will more than suffice to unseat "Halloween Ends," which topped the charts last weekend with 41 million viewers.

+ + +

+
+
+

"Ticket to Paradise," a romantic comedy starring Julia Roberts and George Clooney, will compete against "Black Adam."

+ + +

+
+
+

In its first weekend at the box office, it hopes to bring in $15 million from 3,500 theaters.

+ + +

+
+
+

It's unlikely that "Black Adam," which cost a whopping 195 million to make, will set any comic book industry records. 

+ + +

+
+
+

In order to justify that price tag, it will undoubtedly need a long life on the big screen.

+ + +

+
+
+

But the film does appear to add some zing to an otherwise lackluster October at the box office.

+ + +

+
+
+

Reviews of "Black Adam" have been conflicting. However, since it is a superhero movie, it is less likely that negative reviews will have an impact on sales.

+ + +

+
+
+

Johnson portrays an antihero who is set free into the present day in "Black Adam" after being imprisoned for nearly 5,000 years.
