Foreign media predicts that "The Little Mermaid" will open in North America with $110 million. Do you want to watch it?

The live-action movie "The Little Mermaid" will be released simultaneously in China and the United States on May 26. Since it coincides with "Memorial Day" in the United States, foreign media Deadline predicts that the film's box office will reach 110 million US dollars in the first four days, which will rank among the top eight in film history.

The champion of the "Memorial Day" period opening was last year's "Top Gun 2", which had $160.5 million. The highest opening for a Disney film during this period was "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" in 2007, which had $153 million, and "Aladdin" in 2019, which had $116.8 million.

Of course, the main audience of the live-action movie "The Little Mermaid" is women, especially those under 25 years old. Men may not like to watch it. The production cost of this movie is over 150 million US dollars. It may be easy to make back the cost, right?

The Little Mermaid is directed by Rob Marshall, with Halle Bailey as the Little Mermaid, Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric, and Melissa McCarthy as the octopus sea witch Ursula. The film is adapted from the 1989 animated film version, telling the story of the Little Mermaid who lives in the sea and resolutely gives up her country and race after falling in love with the prince, becoming a human being and pursuing love.
