“Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One” kicked off to US$15.5 million on opening day, including US$7 million in previews on Tuesday.

Paramount and Skydance’s big-budget tentpole, which is the seventh installment in the Tom Cruise-led action franchise, is projected to collect at least US$60 million over the traditional Friday to Sunday weekend.

In its first five days of release, ticket sales for “Dead Reckoning Part One” are expected to reach US$85 million to US$95 million in North America and US$160 million at the international box office for a strong global start of around US$250 million.

Cruise’s previous adventure as the stealth operative Ethan Hunt, 2018’s “Mission: Impossible – Fallout,” ignited to US$22 million its first day in theaters, but that’s not a great comparison since that entry launched on a Friday while “Dead Reckoning” premiered on a Wednesday.

“Fallout” collected US$61 million in its debut, establishing a franchise record.

“Mission: Impossible” movies don’t have a history of huge opening weekends, but they tend to enjoy a long life on the big screen.

In the case of “Fallout,” the movie ended its run with US$791 million to stand as the highest-grossing entry in the 27-year-old series.
