Nolan's 'The Odyssey' Opens To The Year's Best Preview Night
Universal's Greek epic pulled $17.5 million from Thursday screenings on roughly 3,900 screens, tracking toward a $100 million opening weekend.
- $17.5 million Thursday haul beats Nolan's own 'Oppenheimer' preview take of $10.5 million.
- Critics and audiences both score the film 96%, the highest of Nolan's career.
- Trackers project a $90 to $100 million weekend, Nolan's biggest since 2012's 'The Dark Knight Rises.'
Why it matters: Thursday's total counts advance curiosity bought at the box office, not the verdict of anyone who watched the whole film.
