Pixar's Hoppers Aims for Box-Office Lead as The Bride Stumbles

Pixar’s animal-centric Hoppers is projected to debut with roughly $35–$40 million in North America to lead the weekend, while Warner Bros.’ feminist Frankenstein tale The Bride is tracking around $10–15 million domestically (Warner Bros. projects $16–18 million) and about $22 million internationally. Hoppers, produced for $150 million, would mark Pixar’s first original hit since Coco (2017), and it carries strong early buzz (96% on Rotten Tomatoes). If Hoppers hits the high end of expectations, it could easily outpace The Bride, which faces a cautious start for Warner Bros.

Jessie Buckley leads Maggie Gyllenhaal’s The Bride!, a loud, stylish reimagining of the Frankenstein myth that roars with dance numbers and retro flair but is hampered by uneven plotting and sporadic clunkiness; it effectively showcases Buckley’s talents and a chic 1930s aesthetic, yet its ambitions occasionally overwhelm its focus on consent and feminism.
