BOX OFFICE

(Summit)

Ender’s Game is expected to top the weekend box office, according to early estimates.

The sci-fi action adventure about a boy military genius is on pace for approximately $28 million, which would be enough to beat last week’s champ, Bad Grandpa, currently tracking toward about $19 million.

Two new releases, the geriatric bromance comedy Last Vegas and the animated turkey tale Free Birds, are battling for third place with roughly $16 million apiece.

Gravity should orbit the #5 spot with an estimated $13 million, followed by Captain Phillips in sixth place at $8 million or so.

The Top 10 will likely be rounded out with 12 Years a Slave, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2, The Counselor, and Carrie.

Gossip Cop will have updates.
