MK (2021) clocked $23.3M OW DOM under severe day-and-date streaming and pandemic constraints. With the sequel hitting a full theatrical window, a sub-$30M OW DOM implies audience erosion or an R-rated IP market contraction, neither of which current tracking suggests. The IP's established fanbase, coupled with an improved theatrical landscape, makes a marginal 28% increase over the original's *handicapped* opening highly probable. Expecting $35M+. 95% NO — invalid if simultaneous streaming release announced.
