Per Deadline, as of Saturday morning, The Drama is projected to earn a 3-day debut total of $14 million at the domestic box office by the end of Sunday. This total sees it debuting at No. 3 on the domestic chart over Easter weekend, behind the Ryan Gosling sci-fi epic Project Hail Mary (at No. 2 in its third weekend) and the animated video game sequel The Super Mario Galaxy Movie (which is set for a record-breaking No. 1 debut).
By landing at No. 3 on the chart, The Drama has become the first Zendaya movie not to debut at No. 1 since her animated feature Smallfoot debuted at No. 2 in September 2018.
