Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One opened on Wednesday, July 12, in many parts of the world and has delivered successful numbers on its first day. While all eyes are set on the numbers on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, the film’s performance on Wednesday isn’t bad either.

Before Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One, Top Gun: Maverick ($1.45 billion) and Mission: Impossible – Fallout ($791 million) became the two highest-grossing movies of all time. Now, M: I 7 is also on the same track as its opening-day numbers.

As per Deadline, Dead Reckoning Part One opened with $16 million on its opening day at the domestic box office, which included $7 million in previews. The film opened in quite a few other countries, and its country-wise opening day numbers for Wednesday are listed below:

· Domestic - $16 million
· India – $1.5 million (Rupees 12.5 crore)
· Hong Kong – $1.4 million
· Vietnam – $622 thousand
· Colombia – $243 thousand
· Hungary – $60 thousand

The film is expected to make somewhere between 90-$100 million by the weekend domestically and reach a worldwide total of $250 million. This opening is a franchise-best, but with a reported production budget of around $290 million, the movie needs to perform well and go past Fallout’s box office total at the very least.

However, there are quite a few hurdles in front of Dead Reckoning Part One as it faces a lot of competition in the coming weeks.

The summer market of 2023 has already been crowded with many big-budget movies, including Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, Fast X, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, and many others. Now, after Dead Reckoning, we’ll be seeing Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer, Barbie, and Meg 2: The Trench from July 21 onward.

Furthermore, all IMAX and other premium screens will go to Oppenheimer when they arrive, and even Tom Cruise was reportedly unhappy about that. After all, Premium screens bring in a lot of money for most big-budget movies.

So, the second-weekend numbers of M: I 7 could see a huge drop because of the lack of premium screens and the competition from Oppenheimer and Barbie, as their presales tracking is very high. It is possible for M: I 7 to share premium screens with Oppenheimer from July 28 onwards, but it will have to be very careful of the damage that the weekend of July 21 might cause.

Box office numbers of the Mission: Impossible franchise so far

Before Dead Reckoning Part One, the Mission: Impossible franchise managed to bring in almost $3.6 billion from its six movies. The total earnings from each film are listed below.

Mission: Impossible — $457.7 million
Mission: Impossible 2 — $546.4 million
Mission: Impossible III — $398.5 million
Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol — $694.7 million
Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation — $682.7 million
Mission: Impossible – Fallout — $791.7 million

With the hype that Tom Cruise has managed to generate with 2022’s Top Gun: Maverick and with the 99% fresh Rotten Tomatoes score that Dead Reckoning has achieved, it is possible for the latest outing to be the best in terms of its box office numbers as well. However, the competition with Oppenheimer might take away its shot at entering the billion-dollar club.

Mission: Impossible 7 is out in theaters, and Part 8 will arrive on June 28, 2024.
