After a 36 year wait, the Tom Cruise sequel Top Gun: Maverick finally took off to a massive $19.3M in previews.That’s the highest grossing preview in Paramount Pictures’ history and the highest grossing Memorial Day preview in history.Previous big preview for Paramount was 2009’s Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen with $16M, which were on a Tuesday before a $62M Wednesday (repping 25% of opening day).Thursday previews began at 3PM for the Paramount/Skydance feature.
In addition, there were also a “Top Gun” Tuesday with premium large format, Imax, and Dolby screens opening their curtains at 7PM.
The above figure is comprised of Tuesday and Thursday tickets sales.On a Thursday preview basis, that’s the best Tom Cruise has ever seen, blowing away the $6M previews from 2018’s Mission: Impossible – Fallout.
Industry projections earlier this week believe that a $100M+ four-day is in store at 4,735 theaters, which of course would make it the best weekend opening ever for Cruise.
