Holiday moviegoing may begin in earnest on Christmas, but we can’t ignore that there 95% of K-12 schools are off today — and colleges too. Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog 3, after coming in lower than expected at $60.1M on opening weekend, will continue its rally at the box office with around $9M today at 3,761 locations for a running total of $69.1M. The pic’s upcoming 5-day outlook from Christmas Wednesday through Sunday looks to be north of $50M.

The Jeff Fowler-directed threequel starring Jim Carrey and Ben Schwartz will be off today by some 41% from its $15.3M Sunday.

Disney’s Mufasa: The Lion King, after a very low $35.4M opening, will see another $7M today. That’s down 32% from Sunday’s $10.2M. The four-day on Mufasa is $42.4M. The Barry Jenkins-directed prequel should see around $40M-$45M in the 5-day Christmas run, followed by Moana 2 with $20M-$22M.

Universal’s Wicked is eyeing around $4M today after a $14.1M fifth weekend, -38%, at 3,296 theaters. The Jon M.
