Always know that forecast can swing higher or lower by the time late night monies come in Friday AM. Hopefully tonight’s previews are an indicator to better days at the summer B.O.; that the current momentum from A Minecraft Movie and Sinners keeps up.

Disney/Marvel Studios' "Thunderbolts*" has gotten the summer box office off to a very good start, earning $11.5 million from Thursday preview screenings. That result is only slightly below the $12 million preview total of "Captain America: Brave New World" earlier this year,

The superhero movie, directed by Jake Schreier, has made $11.5 million in previews so far. It’s expected to make between $70 million to $75 million in its opening weekend domestically, and worldwide it’s projected to end up with $160 million to $175 million.
