Johnny Depp's 'Ebenezer' Leads Box Office in $20M Debut
Johnny Depp’s studio comeback vehicle, 'Ebenezer,' has secured the top spot at the domestic box office. The horror-tinged adaptation of Charles Dickens’ 'A Christmas Carol,' directed by Ti West, earned $6.7 million on its opening Friday and is projected to gross between $18 million and $20 million for the weekend. Released in 3,535 North American theaters by Paramount Pictures, the film carries a $38 million production budget. Audience reception has been strong, with the film receiving an A- CinemaScore and a 4.5/5 rating on PostTrak. However, critical reviews remain divided, with a 53% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The film marks Depp’s first major studio release since 2018, following a hiatus caused by legal disputes and negative publicity.
