Fox's "Ford v Ferrari" is revving up to win the box-office race this weekend as the biopic has raked in a solid $2.1 million from Thursday evening previews. Starring Christian Bale and Matt Damon, the awards hopeful is on track to gross as much as $30 million from 3,528 theaters in its opening weekend.
Another big profile release is the "Charlie's Angels" reboot directed by Elizabeth Banks and starring Kristen Stewart, Naomi Scott and Ella Balinska. The film only delivered $900,000 from previews, and could end up with less than $10 million from 3,452 theaters over the weekend.
Meanwhile, New Line/Bron's thriller "The Good Liar" starring Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren opened in 2,439 theaters and looks like it will tank at the box-office with the studio expecting a $5 million debut.
In limited release it might be worth checking out the dramas "Waves" starring Sterling K. Brown, and "The Report" starring Adam Driver, Annette Bening and Jon Hamm
