©Universal/Courtesy Everett Collection Director Steven Spielberg is back at the box office with an original alien thriller, “Disclosure Day.” It has made $6.5 million at the box office in Thursday previews.
The Universal film is expected to open with $35 million at the box office this weekend and comes with a $115 million budget, plus $80 million in marketing costs. Despite Spielberg’s name and track record, it’s one of the summer’s riskier gambles to launch a twisty, conspiracy thriller that isn’t part of an existing IP or franchise. Some box office analysts predict that “Disclosure Day” would need to open with $50 million to justify its cost, and that it will need to make $300 globally to be profitable.
