Sony’s Uncharted, based on the 15-year-old Amy Hennig and Naughty Dog-created Sony PlayStation video game, grossed $3.7M in Thursday night previews that began at 4PM.
That’s a solid number which bests the pre-pandemic previews of such mid-February hits like Sonic the Hedgehog ($3M, from showtimes that began at 5PM), Kingsman: The Secret Service ($1.5M, off 7PM), and even with March PG-13 adventure movie Kong: Skull Island ($3.7M).
Industry projections earlier this week had the Tom Holland-Mark Wahlberg movie in the mid $30Ms over the 4-day Presidents weekend, possibly $40M, however, these preview figures provide great hope for better returns.Critics on Rotten Tomatoes have thumbed down Uncharted at 39% Rotten, but it’s not a movie for them: It’s a pure, breezy, fun popcorn film.
If all goes well for Sony, they might have a new franchise on their hands in this Ruben Fleischer directed film. Uncharted, which took Fleischer, around two years to make from pre-production to finish, carried a production cost of $120M before P&A.Kingsman: The Secret Service played over the Presidents Day/Valentine’s Day weekend 2015 and minted $41.7M over 4-days and $36.2M over 3-days.
