Weekend Box-Office: SCARY STORIES Tops Newcomers With $20.8M Debut While HOBBS & SHAW Holds at #1

It was a busy weekend with no less than five new wide releases competing against an already strong batch of contenders. While "Hobbs & Shaw" still leads the charts, the PG-13 thriller "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark" managed a stronger-than-expected debut. The family adventure film "Dora and the Lost City of Gold" slightly underperformed, while the dramedy "The Art of Racing in the Rain", and the crime drama "The Kitchen" failed to impress audiences. The true story drama "Brian Banks" didn't make The Top 10.

In Theaters: DORA AND THE LOST CITY OF GOLD, SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK, THE KITCHEN, BRIAN BANKS and THE ART OF RACING IN THE RAIN

Paramount's "Dora and the Lost City of Gold", the live-action adaptation of Nickelodeon's "Dora the Explorer" animated TV series, has been released in theaters and will attempt to overthrow "The Lion King" and "Hobbs & Shaw". Pundits predict a close contest between Disney and Universal's big budget behemoths, but Dora could very well surpass both with a little luck. Starring Isabela Moner, the film has delivered $1.25 million from previews, and it might finish the weekend with over $20 million from 3,735 theaters.

Things are also looking good for the new horror film "Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark", which is produced by Oscar-winning genre filmmaker Guillermo del Toro. Based on the children's book series of the same name by Alvin Schwartz, the PG-13 film has grossed $2.3 million from Thursday night previews, and predictions point towards a decent $15-19 million debut from 3,135 theaters.

Melissa McCarthy, Elisabeth Moss and Tiffany Haddish team up for the crime drama "The Kitchen" from Oscar-nominated scribe Andrea Berloff ("Straight Outta Compton"). The film is based on the Vertigo comic book miniseries of the same name by Ollie Masters and Ming Doyle. Critics did not love this film and it will probably deliver a disappointing debut, probably between $7-$9 million from 2,745.

The dramedy "The Art of Racing in the Rain", a Disney release of a 20th Century Fox film, is also out in theaters, and expected to perform poorly. Based on the 2008 novel of the same name, the film stars Milo Ventimiglia, Amanda Seyfried and a canine companion voiced by Kevin Costner. Released in 2,765 theaters, pundits expect the film to gross around $9 million in its opening weekend.

For fans of true stories, we have the biopic "Brian Banks", which stars Aldis Hodge as the titular football player, whose found his life and career ruined when he was wrongly convicted of a crime he didn't commit. The film is directed by "Liar, Liar" and "Bruce Almighty" helmer Tom Shadyac, and it's expected to finish the weekend outside the Top 10 with around $2 million from 1,240 theaters.
