Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has one of the largest Preview Box Office showings of all time. Variety reports that the latest MCU movie has notched a reality-warping $36 million on Thursday. That’s the second-best showing of the COVID-19 era behind Spider-Man: No Way Home. Theaters continue to reap the benefits of Marvel Studios crowd pleasers as they head into an absolutely crucial summer at the movies. Strange has already been crushing overseas as well. Overseas markets have accounted for $85.7 million as well. SO, the movie has a chance to cross $200 million pretty easily by the end of the weekend. Add in the fact that word of mouth for Multiverse of Madness will be strong as well and you have the recipe for a legendary weekend in theaters. Kevin Feige and his team at Marvel have to be thrilled with the initial returns on this one.
