‘Napoleon’ and ‘Wish’ Arrive at the Thanksgiving Box Office


With the release of two new animated flicks, Napoleon and Wish, the Thanksgiving box office race is heating up.

Both films had impressive opening weekends, with Napoleon making an estimated $3 million in previews and Wish coming in second with $2.3 million.

Napoleon is a historical comedy-drama about the rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, the French Emperor. The film has received critical acclaim for its wit, visual effects, and performances, particularly those of Joaquin Phoenix as Napoleon.

Wish is a Disney animated musical about a young woman who wishes for something that comes true in surprising ways. The film has received critical acclaim for its catchy music, compassionate tale, and breathtaking animation.

With both films earning excellent reviews and strong opening numbers, the race to the top of the Thanksgiving box office chart is shaping up to be a close one.

It remains to be seen which film will triumph, but one thing is certain: moviegoers will be in for a treat this holiday season.

Along with ‘Napoleon’ and ‘Wish,’ numerous other films are competing for audience attention this Thanksgiving weekend.

Trolls Band Together, the sequel to the 2016 animated smash, has debuted strongly and is likely to be a major box office contender. Several Oscar hopefuls, like The Holdovers and Saltburn, are also fighting for attention.
