Oz the Great and Powerful will cruise to a second straight weekend box office victory, according to early estimates.

The fantasy adventure starring James Franco is set to earn roughly $42 million for the period, trouncing two new releases ' Halle Berry's 911 operator thriller The Call ($17 million) and Steve Carell's magician comedy The Incredible Burt Wonderstone ($11 million).

Jack the Giant Slayer is expected to finish in fourth place with about $7 million.

The hit comedy Identity Thief, starring Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy, continues to perform well in its sixth week, with projections putting it at $4.8 million and the #5 spot.

Snitch, with The Rock, will likely follow in sixth place with about $4 million.

The chart should round out with 21 & Over, Safe Haven, Silver Linings Playbook, and Dead Man Down, all of which are tracking toward $2.5 million or so.

Gossip Cop will have updates.
