Daniel Craig stars in the 25th James Bond film, which could match the performance of „Spectre“ and „Skyfall“
After a long wait, “No Time to Die” has finally opened in North American theaters, and on Thursday it brought in $6.3 million in preview screenings. It opens at approximately 4,407 screens this weekend. That’s 19% better than the last James Bond film “Spectre” did in 2015 when it made $5.3 million and opened to $70.4 million domestically, not to mention “Skyfall” in 2012, which made $4.6 million in previews but opened to a much greater $88.3 million domestic. Granted, “No Time to Die” is opening in the midst of an ongoing pandemic, which multiple times led to the film being delayed in the first place. While industry projections are staying conservative at just a $60 million opening, there’s hope that “No Time to Die” can be in the range of its Bond predecessors in topping “Spectre” and potentially matching “Skyfall.
