So far, “Southpaw” has received mixed reviews. Find out how the film is expected to perform in the box office and what Gyllenhaal, his exes and McAdams are worth.
“Southpaw” Box Office Predictions and Budget
Despite its debut this weekend, “Southpaw” isn’t expected to crack the top five films in box office sales, according to Entertainment Weekly. The film is projected to earn box office sales in the mid-teens of millions of dollars, less than estimated ticket sales for “Pixels,” “Ant-Man” and “Minions,” among others. Still, if “Southpaw” keeps a slow-and-steady pace, the film could be on course to earn back its $30 million budget.
