Thanks to a robust first day performance, the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe film, Captain America: Brave New World, is expected to see improved earnings for the weekend. As reported by Deadline, the movie is projected to earn around $40 million in its domestic debut on the opening day. This strong start could lead to a weekend gross of anywhere between $95-109 million over the extended Presidents’ Day holiday period. Notably, Disney predicts slightly more modest earnings, estimating that Captain America: Brave New World will bring in $90-96 million. Regardless of the final figure, it would be the highest box office opening of 2025 thus far.
This week’s other notable debut, “Paddington in Peru,” is projected to earn around $16-$17.5 million within the holiday period in the U.S., placing it a considerable distance behind the number one spot. The rest of the top five is expected to include “Dog Man” ($13.35 million), “Heart Eyes” ($11 million), and “Ne Zha 2” ($7.2 million).
Although the overall trend hasn’t significantly changed, the projected box office earnings for the movie “Captain America: Brave New World” have seen some fluctuations as of late. As we approach its release this weekend, initial predictions placed its opening weekend earnings between $80-85 million and Presidents’ Day weekend earnings at $90-95 million. However, these figures were slightly lower compared to the early projections made in January. The film earned approximately $12 million domestically from preview screenings on February 13th.
In a nutshell, Brave New World didn’t receive widespread positive buzz like other movies in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) due to mixed reviews. Its Rotten Tomatoes critics score is relatively low compared to other MCU films, with some viewers finding the narrative lackluster despite impressive performances from the main actors. This reception could potentially have influenced its box office performance.
Despite initial predictions for the opening weekend of “Brave New World” falling short compared to the earnings of “Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania” two years ago ($120.3 million), it doesn’t diminish the fact that “Captain America 4” is a commercial success. With a production budget of $180 million, “Brave New World” was relatively inexpensive compared to many recent Marvel productions, positioning it well for substantial profits. As the first major studio tentpole movie of 2025, “Brave New World” will enjoy a lengthy run without much direct competition until March, allowing it to dominate the box office for an extended period. However, there are still intriguing projects set to debut during that time, such as Bong Joon-ho’s “Mickey 17.
It’s intriguing to observe if “Captain America: Brave New World” will sustain its momentum during its second weekend in theaters. As “Dog Man” might attest, an impressive opening doesn’t necessarily guarantee continued success at the box office. Akin to many studio blockbusters, Marvel films are typically front-loaded, earning a substantial amount of revenue during their initial release due to fan excitement. The relatively low level of buzz surrounding “Brave New World” indicates it could experience a considerable drop in attendance next weekend. Although it’s unlikely to flop, such an outcome wouldn’t be favorable for Marvel as they begin planning the next Avengers movies. However, with no major upcoming releases, “Brave New World” might continue to attract viewers and set the stage for a prosperous 2025 in the MCU.
