J. Kim Murphy Marvel Studios has kicked the box office into high gear again. “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” landed the largest opening day of 2023 so far with a $46 million gross from 4,345 locations, a figure that includes $17.5 million from Thursday preview screenings.

That marks the third-highest February opening day in history, standing behind two other superhero adventures, “Black Panther” ($75.9 million) and “Deadpool” ($47.3 million). “Quantumania” also landed the highest such figures for the “Ant-Man” series, beating out the 2015 original ($22.6 million) and 2018 sequel ($33 million). “Quantumania” is currently eyeing a three-day opening north of $100 million.

Some more bullish industry predictions have the film ending up about $130 million over the four-day Presidents’ Day holiday frame.

That would come in under the openings of last year’s Marvel slate, including “Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness” ($185 million), “Thor: Love and Thunder” ($144 million) and “Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,” ($181 million).
