Brad Pitt and M3GAN the menacing A.I. doll are set to face off against each other at the box office this weekend...but who will come out on top? According to box office pundits...Pitt's Formula 1 racing film 'F1: The Movie' is set to cross the finish line first with an impressive domestic opening of $40 million to $50 million. Warner Bros., which is distributing the big-budget summer tentpole for Apple Original Films, is being more conservative. As for the 'M3GAN' sequel, 'M3GAN 2.0'...Universal is forecasting a $20 million-plus opening, which would be $10 million less than the first film's $30.4 million record domestic opening in December 2023.
