For the first time since 2018’s “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald,” Johnny Depp is back on the big screen in a major Hollywood movie with Paramount’s “Ebenezer.” His new, darkly comedic take on “A Christmas Carol” has made $1.5 million in previews at the box office.

“Ebenezer,” directed by Ti West, is expected to open with $20 million domestically and another $20 million overseas. Paramount spent $38 million to produce the spin on the classic Charles Dickens tale, plus another $50 million to market it, and it’ll need the adoration of Depp’s diehard fans to power it through the holiday season.
