That’s the lowest opening day for a superhero movie since 2012’s Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance, which grossed $6.9 million its opening day and is the lowest opening day for any Fox superhero movie including 2003’s Daredevil starring Ben Affleck, which opened with $15.3 million its first day on its way to a weak $102 million domestic total.
An $11.3 million opening day (including $2.7 million from Thursday previews) means that Fantastic Four will be struggling to make $30 million for the weekend, and it could be a close race with Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation for first place even with it only grossing $8 million on Friday.
