Two films could gross over $20M apiece this weekend which is pretty good in the pre-Christmas frame: Disney’s third weekend of Zootopia 2 and Universal/Blumhouse’s Five Nights at Freddy’s 2.

The family animated movie is expected to pop back up to No. 1 with around $26M , a -40% dip from its $43.4M second weekend. Zootopia 2 will any day now pass the $1 billion mark worldwide (sans Russia) becoming the third movie to do so YTD (second MPA title to pull it off after Lilo & Stitch ‘s $1 billion).

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 has a swing between $16M-$20M . Though purely theatrical, the movie’s fandom is frontloaded, hence the drop. Still, the movie which stands at $71M through yesterday is destined for $100M+. The first movie ended its U.S./Canada run at $137.2M.
