Ted Stuffs Box Office Competition to Hit #1

Magic Mike Ted

BOX OFFICE

(Universal)

The foul-mouthed bear is box office king.

Ted, starring Mark Wahlberg, Mila Kunis and director Seth MacFarlane as a pot-smoking, dirty-minded stuffed animal, is on pace to win the weekend with a debut of approximately $51 million.

Early estimates put another new release, Channing Tatum's male stripper extravaganza Magic Mike, at #2 with an impressive $43 million.

That should be enough to knock last week's winner, Pixar adventure Brave, to third place at about $35 million.

Madea's Witness Protection, the latest offering from director-star Tyler Perry, is on pace for a very strong $27 million fourth-place debut.

After the Top 4, it's a big drop to holdover Madagascar 3, which should earn roughly $14 million for the #5 spot.

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter should do about $6.5 million in business for sixth place.

According to projections, a quartet of movies are closely bunched in the neighborhood of $4 to $5 million: Prometheus, People Like Us, Moonrise Kingdom and Snow White and the Huntsman.

The overall Top 10 order remains to be seen.

Gossip Cop will have updates.
