Juror #2 is performing well at the box office in spite of its limitations. Even though the project, which stars Nicholas Hoult as a juror facing a moral quandary, could be Clint Eastwood's last movie, it has received minimal support from Warner Bros. Pictures in its domestic debut. A recent report suggested that it may never expand beyond a 50-theater limited run and that the distributor is not reporting their own box office numbers, in a move that could reflect doubt that it will perform well either commercially or as an awards contender.

Per Deadline, reporting from 35 theaters shows that Juror #2's projected 3-day domestic opening weekend total is between $260,000 and $275,000, which is a solid per-screen average of roughly $7,500. To compare, the opening weekend per-screen average for Venom: The Last Dance, which cost more than 3 times Juror #2's roughly $35 million budget, was $12,348, while the comparably budgeted Smile 2 has a per-screen average of $6,361.

Variety's international box office report has also confirmed that Juror #2 has debuted with $5 million overseas in just six territories including France, Spain, and the United Kingdom.
