Black Phone 2 will top the chart at the box office this weekend, not because of a particularly great opening, but more due to the weak performance of Tron: Ares, which is likely to struggle to top $10 million in its second outing. New releases look likely to earn over $30 million between them, which means we could yet squeak out a market win over last weekend and this weekend last year, when Smile 2 opened with $23 million.
