Home Again, the Reese Witherspoon-starring romantic comedy from Open Road Films which has a large core female audience, garnered $300K in previews. The film, which has drawn mixed reviews, is considered counter-programming in a weekend that will all but be chased out of theaters by a crazed clown with a red balloon. It was directed by Hallie Meyers-Shyer and also stars Lake Bell and Michael Sheen.
A comp for Home Again‘s comp is Bridget Jones Baby, the romantic comedy which was released during a similar time last year (on Sept. 16) and had preview numbers of $364K previews and a Friday night of $3M before ending its three-day at $8.2M. Bridget Jones Baby played at 2,208 theaters also with shows starting at 7PM.
In the social media universe (SMU), RelishMix reports that Home Again has a social media universe of 33M, well below the 47M typical for a romantic comedy in its opening week. The SMU consists of 4.5M Facebook fans, 2.9M Twitter followers, 10.2M YouTube views and 12.2M Instagram followers.
Home Again has 4.4K daily YouTube video views when 17K is typical for the genre. There are not any notable social efforts to speak of, but it is strong on convo as Witherspoon is a draw and is engaged and sharing materials to her nearly 17M fans and followers.
