Market rules
Yes — if Box Office Mojo on the Resident Evil (2026) page (https://www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt35538033/) indicates Domestic Opening Weekend (3 days, Fri–Sun, September 18–20, 2026) of at least $50,000,000. No — if the value is less than $50,000,000.
The final (actuals) figure from the "Domestic Opening" block on the specified page as of September 22, 2026, 20:00 UTC will be taken into account; preliminary studio estimates for the weekend are not considered.
Edge cases: (1) if the release is postponed and the film has not been widely released in the USA by September 20, 2026, inclusive — result is “No”; (2) if Box Office Mojo has not updated the data by September 22, 2026, 20:00 UTC — the first published Domestic Opening value within the next 72 hours will be taken; (3) preview/Thursday earnings are only considered if they are included by Box Office Mojo in the Opening Weekend figure.
