So far, it\u2019s made $3.1 million in Thursday previews.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe epic action thriller is projected to open between $20 million to $25 million this weekend. That\u2019s on par with DiCaprio\u2019s last opening weekend, \u201cKillers of the Flower Moon,\u201d which was directed by Martin Scorsese in 2023 and co-starred Robert De Niro. <\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tDiCaprio\u2019s star power, Anderson\u2019s credentials as an auteur and rave reviews will have to work overtime for \u201cOne Battle After Another\u201d at the box office, because it carries a hefty $130 million price tag. It\u2019ll need  roughly $300 million to break even. Anderson\u2019s highest-grossing movie of his career is 2007\u2019s \u201cThere Will Be Blood,\u201d which made $76.4 million globally. Warner Bros.\u2019 hot streak of movies could relieve some of the box office pressure, considering their last seven movies all opened above $40 million. That list includes \u201cA Minecraft Movie,\u201d \u201cSinners,\u201d \u201cFinal Destination Bloodlines,\u201d \u201cF1: The Movie\u201d (which the studio distributed for Apple), \u201cSuperman,\u201d \u201cWeapons\u201d and \u201cThe Conjuring: Last Rites.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tIn \u201cOne Battle After Another,\u201d DiCaprio stars as a washed-up revolutionary struggling to raise his teenage daughter as an enemy from his past reemerges. The cast includes Sean Penn, Teyana Taylor, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall, Chase Infiniti and more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tAlso opening this weekend is Universal\u2019s G-rated film \u201cGabby\u2019s Dollhouse,\u201d which is targeting a $12 million to $15 million opening. The family-friendly film is based on Netflix\u2019s hit series for pre-schoolers, and it made $700,000 in previews. Lionsgate\u2019s \u201cThe Strangers: Chapter 2,\u201d the second installment of the rebooted horror trilogy, is on track to make $6 million to $8 million. It made $630,000 in previews.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"For Warner Bros., it\u2019s been one box office hit after another, but the studio\u2019s streak of successful openings&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":44874,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[93,61,60,10495,270,11549,11724],"class_list":["post-44873","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-leonardo-dicaprio","tag-movies","tag-one-battle-after-another","tag-paul-thomas-anderson"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44873","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=44873"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/44873\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/44874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=44873"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=44873"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=44873"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
