The American public has turned in recent days to see
Guardians of the Galaxy
Vol. 3,
which had a preview on Thursday, May 4, and then a full day in 4,450 theaters.
It has already raised 48 million dollars
and ranked first in the ranking, dethroning
Super Mario Bros.
, which was released a month ago.
In pre-opening day showings, the new Guardians adventure earned a total of $17.5 million.
According to projections,
in the first weekend the third installment is expected to obtain approximately 100 million dollars
, although according to the specialized media Deadline it would be between 110 and 120 million dollars.
The long-awaited final installment of "Guardians of the Galaxy" hit theaters last Thursday, a farewell to the heroes who marked a before and after in the Marvel universe with their music and sense of humor.
Extrapolating to how much it could end up collecting in its entire stage in theaters in the domestic market, they estimate that the figure would be between 288 and 403 million dollars.
Less box office than the previous ones
The $48 million figure seems high, but it actually
wouldn't represent the best opening gross for director James Gunn's trilogy
.
If it comes to fruition,
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3
would debut below
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
, which had a $146 million opening weekend, but would do better than the first
Guardians .
de la Galaxy
, whose debut garnered a total of 94.3 million.

The Thursday-Friday US box office result is on par with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and is a notch higher than
Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania
and
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
.
Since 2019, after the spectacular
Avengers: Endgame,
many Marvel fans believe that the movies have dropped in level, but
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.
3
seems to have them excited again.
The new film closes a cycle for its director, and especially that of this unlikely group of characters who have been interacting since 2014 with a success that perhaps few imagined: Star-Lord (Chris Pratt), Gamora (Zoe Saldana), Drax ( Dave Bautista), Mantis (Pom Klementieff), Nebula (Karen Gillan), Rocket Raccoon (voiced by Bradley Cooper), and Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel).
