Per Deadline, Mufasa: The Lion King is projected to earn $12 million through Sunday and $16 million through the four-day MLK holiday weekend. If the estimate holds it will boost Mufasa’s running domestic tally to $210.3 million since its Dec. 20, 2024, opening.

It’s one of those weekends at the box office, with two new releases pawing at one another in a closer-than-expected race. Sony’s buddy comedy “One of Them Days” is coming in on the higher end of initial projections after earning $4.
