Havoc of the Planet of the Apes Tracking for $40M Bow

According to early estimates, the science fiction installment is expected to have one of the lowest openings of any Planet of the Apes film.

The Apes are finally making their way to the multiplex.

The long delayed Ape project is tracking for an opening weekend in the $40 million range, according to those with access to early box office surveys.

The big-budget science fiction movie is tracking lower than other recent entries in the Ape universe. In 2011,  Rise of the Planet of the Apes  had a $54.8 million bow (unadjusted for inflation). 2014's  Dawn of the Planet of the Apes  earned $72.6 million in its first three-day weekend in theaters.
