Adding further pain, Wish is competing with other hit films currently dominating the box office, such as The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, which pulled in approximately $11 million on Friday alone and is expected to outperform Wish. Additionally, Napoleon, surprisingly close in numbers with an estimated $8.5 million on Friday, is projected to earn between $33 and $35 million over the holiday weekend—potentially surpassing Wish in total gross.
This competitive landscape underscores the struggles Disney faces, as other major releases continue to draw audiences away from its cinematic offerings.
