- Street Fighter earned $4 million in Thursday previews with a projected $25–35 million opening weekend; the $82 million Paramount/Legendary/Capcom co-production, directed by Kitao Sakura with Noah Centineo, Andrew Koji, and Jason Momoa, is the first release under Paramount's new global distribution deal with Legendary.
- Whalefall, Disney's $60 million survival thriller starring Austin Abrams as a scuba diver swallowed by a giant sperm whale, posted $900,000 in previews and is tracking $10–12 million for second place, with positive reviews for the claustrophobic premise expected to extend its run.
- You Can See Everything, A24's Elizabeth Holmes documentary that cost just $7 million to produce, pulled $1.75 million in previews and is aiming for $7–8 million — directors Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim secretly filmed Holmes and lived with her ahead of her 11-year prison sentence.
- Sense and Sensibility, Focus Features' $25 million Jane Austen adaptation starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Esmé Creed-Miles as the Dashwood sisters, earned $1.15 million from advance screenings and is on track for $5–8 million in its debut.
Why it matters: Four wide releases spanning video game film, survival thriller, true-crime documentary, and period drama compete in one weekend, with the $82 million 'Street Fighter' positioned to dominate on $4 million previews while A24's $7 million Elizabeth Holmes documentary lands a rare documentary box office hit on $1.75 million previews tracking a $7–8 million debut.
