Paramount Pictures is projecting a $22-million debut for the horror film, which is right in line with our Friday-morning prediction, and shows that it’s holding up well after earning $2 million from previews on Thursday.

Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile is hoping for a debut somewhere in that ballpark this weekend, but, while it’s a strong favorite to come top of chart, our model thinks it might struggle to get there. Arguably the last one was Clifford the Big Red Dog, which opened with $16.6 million in November last year. It’s been a while since we’ve seen a straight up live action (with a touch of CGI) family film in theaters.
