Guardians of the Galaxy 3's box office begins with a franchise-best opening night total that sets a new record that could help its opening weekend.
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3's box office opening night set a new record for the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise. Marvel Studios and director James Gunn have watched the obscure group of Marvel characters become incredibly popular over the last nine years. Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is the end of Gunn's trilogy and an emotional send-off for the original iteration of the team.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT According to a report from Variety, Marvel Studios found some success with Guardians of the Galaxy 3's opening night box office, which set a new franchise record with $17.5 million earned from Thursday previews. This total edges out Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2's opening night performance of $17M, which easily surpassed the original's $11.2M opening night.
Will Guardians of the Galaxy 3 Have The Franchise's Highest Opening Weekend? This opening night might technically go down as a new record for the franchise as audiences sit through Guardians of the Galaxy 3's post-credits scenes, but it is unclear if box office opening weekend will do the same. The film's tracking data has been a bit surprising considering the previous films and how much it originally appeared poised to make.
Since Guardians of the Galaxy 3 is not kid-friendly like previous entries, it does not appear likely that it continues breaking records this opening weekend. That does not prevent the movie from still becoming a box office hit. The film is expected to earn over $250M worldwide in its opening weekend, which will at least recoup its budget for Marvel Studios. It can still become profitable for the studio without becoming the highest-grossing Guardians of the Galaxy movie.
