Dog Man' is expected to lead the box office with a $20M+ opening after $1.36M in previews. R-rated horror movie 'Companion' will be second.

Universal and DreamWorks Animation’s new movie has made $1.36 million at the box office in Thursday previews. It’s expected to make between $25 million to $30 million, though some predictions are as high as $40 million due to the demand for family fare.

"Wolf Man" wasn't the early-year hit that Universal had hoped for at the box office … but what about a "Dog Man"? DreamWorks' adaptation of "Captain Underpants" creator Dav Pikey's police dog will try to turn a modest theatrical profit from families looking for a nice time in theaters with the hopes of legging out its run into the Valentine's/Presidents Day weekend.
