US BOX OFFICE June 23-25, 2017

TW / LW / TITLE / WEEKEND GROSS
1 N TRANSFORMERS 5 - $44,680,073
2 2 WONDER WOMAN - $24,906,310
3 1 CARS 3 - $24,074,497
4 5 47 METERS DOWN - $7,088,262
5 4 THE MUMMY - $7,088,262

REALLY bad for Transformers when you look at the past US openings for the franchise:
Transformers 1 - $70,502,384
Transformers 2 - $108,966,307
Transformers 3 - $97,852,865
Transformers 4 - $100,038,390
Transformers 5 - $44,680,073

It may well be saved by the other markets worldwide though as it is already up to $267,675,562 at the worldwide box office.

Amazing holds for Wonder Woman still too, it is very close to taking over the TOTAL BvS & SS grosses in the US in just four weeks so go her

I'm guessing it's Dazzler if true, but my god, what a way to kill off any excitement for a movie. Not only is she a shit singer, she can't act Dazzler is meant to be a badass babe, who doesn't have the power of a man hungry snake. Hopefully just a rumour. If they want to get Dazzler in the movie, get someone who can act AND sing.
WHAT ABOUT GAGA.

Michael Keaton to re-team with Tim Burton for the Dumbo live-action movie.

I hope this means we're getting closer to it filming as I'm really excited for this. Dumbo isn't one of my absolute favourite Disney movies but Burton always has interesting stuff going on in his movies and I think it could transfer it really well into live-action. They'll have to flesh the plot out a bit seeing as the original is so short though

Felicity Jones is set to star in a 'Swan Lake' movie by Luca Guadagnino (also the director of upcoming film, Call Me Be Your Name)!

I find it her kind of irritating tbh but this does look promising, especially with the director attached!
