(THR) – Warner Bros. and Legendary’s A Minecraft Movie couldn’t have carried at a better time. The pic, based on the the wildly popular kids video game, earned a record-shattering $10.6 million in Thursday previews.
Five Nights at Freddy’s previously held the record for biggest previews for a video-game adaptation at $10.3 million.
If that sort of interest A Minecraft Movie continues, the high-wattage ensemble pic could open to $75 million or more, and that’s on the conservative side. The domestic box office is presently in a terrible state, and Minecraft could prove to be shot of confidence Hollywood studios and cinema owners need after such films including Disney’s Snow White, have turned into major disappointments.
