Per Deadline, Mufasa: The Lion King is projected to earn $11.5 million through Sunday and $15.5 million through the four-day MLK holiday weekend. If the estimate holds it will boost Mufasa’s running domestic tally to $209.7 million since its Dec. 20, 2024, opening.

SZA and Keke Palmer's 'One of Them Days' is just behind 'Wolf Man' in its box office opening, as the two race for second behind 'Mufasa.'

Mufasa: The Lion King continues to roar at the box office, where it looks to beat One of Them Days - the first female-led Black comedy since 2017’s Girls Trip - over the long Martin Luther King Jr. holiday crown as Wolf Man gets gouged.
