Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania Projected To Make $120 Million In Its Opening Weekend

Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is projected to earn $120 million over its four-day opening weekend in the US. This would be the largest opening for the franchise so far.

This projection comes from a Deadline report, which cites industry sources. If the prediction is accurate, Quantumania will be the third biggest opening ever on Presidents' Day Weekend, behind Black Panther, at $241.1 million, and Deadpool, at $152.1 million. That would also be the biggest opening for the Ant-Man films generally, as Ant-Man opened at $57.2 million in 2015 and Ant-Man and the Wasp opened at $75.8 million in 2018. For the record, those are all US, not worldwide, figure

The leap in revenue makes sense, as Quantumania is the first Ant-Man movie to act as a tentpole for the MCU, launching the mega film franchise's fifth phase. It will also likely set up villain Kang's, played by Jonathan Majors, franchise star turn in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty. He originally appeared in the Disney+ show Loki.

It was also recently revealed that David Dastmalchian will return in the film, but not as fan favorite character Kurt. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania will release in theaters on February 17.
