## Box Office Expectations
Universal/Blumhouse's 'Other Mommy' and Sony/Columbia/Alcon's 'Social Reckoning' are expected to lead this weekend's box office amid a quieter theatrical market.
## Other Mommy's Star Power
Jessica Chastain stars as both a concerned mother and a vicious doppelganger haunting her daughter in Universal/Blumhouse's horror film.
## Blumhouse's Recent Success
Blumhouse-Atomic Monster has enjoyed franchise success with sequels to 'The Black Phone', 'Five Nights at Freddy's', and 'Insidious' over the past year.
## Blumhouse's Current Challenge
Blumhouse-Atomic Monster faces difficulty consistently attracting audiences for original high-concept horror films since 2024.
## Social Reckoning's Projection
Sony/Columbia/Alcon's 'The Social Reckoning' is expected to open more than 50% below its predecessor's box office performance.
## Key takeaway

Universal/Blumhouse's 'Other Mommy' is expected to perform well at the box office, but Sony's 'Social Reckoning' is projected to open significantly below its predecessor's earnings.
