Obsession’s runaway domestic performance, fueled by exceptional word-of-mouth and horror-unusual week-to-week holds, has propelled it to roughly $175 million and counting by mid-June, establishing a commanding lead over other May releases. Its sub-$1 million budget and sustained top-chart positioning through early June weekends have convinced traders of an overwhelming edge by the June 30 cutoff. The Devil Wears Prada 2’s strong $77 million opening and $217 million total remain well behind, while Mandalorian and Grogu, Mortal Kombat II, and Backrooms show negligible momentum. An upset would require Obsession to suffer an abrupt collapse in its final two weeks while a rival achieves unprecedented late legs, a scenario historical box-office data makes highly improbable.
