LOGAN Rakes in Huge $9.5 Million Thursday Night at the Box Office
Logan, the latest, and likely last, X-Men: Wolverine film starring Hugh Jackman, earned a massive $9.5 million Thursday night in previews.
Logan's preview tally bests the most recent X-Men film, Apocalypse, which earned $8.2 million in previews when it debuted in May 2016, on its way to a $79.8 million debut (over a holiday weekend). Marvel's Doctor Strange, which opened in November, earned $9.4 million, and earned $85 million in its domestic debut. Back in 2013, the most recent Wolverine stand-alone film earned $4 million in previews.
The Fox film, which sees Jackman return to the titular character, is projected to gross more than $70 million in North America this weekend, and as much as $100 million overseas, where it is opening in numerous markets, including China.
Directed by James Mangold, Logan, which is rated R, follows Wolverine, who is caring for an ailing Charles Xavier (Patrick Stewart), as he encounters a mysterious young girl named Laura (Dafne Keen) in need of their help.
