‘Mission: Impossible’ Set to Shatter Records with $60M+ Opening Weekend

The upcoming “Mission: Impossible” film, known as “The Final Reckoning,” is expected to create a significant impact when it hits theaters, potentially setting a new record for the franchise’s highest opening weekend.

Initial projections indicate that the movie might gross more than $60 million during its first weekend, potentially surpassing the opening weekend earnings of “Mission: Impossible – Fallout” ($61 million) from 2018.

This time around, “The Final Reckoning” is set to debut during Memorial Day weekend. Known for being a significant period for movie premieres, this year seems particularly promising compared to the previous one. In contrast to 2024’s underwhelming $132 million total with “Furiosa” and “Garfield”, 2025 is looking much more promising.

A tracking firm named Quorum has been monitoring audience anticipation six weeks prior to the release of “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning.” Their findings indicate that this movie has a notable recognition rating of 59, suggesting a significant number of people are aware of its upcoming premiere and intend to watch it in theaters. Additionally, it scores highly among those who prefer watching it on the big screen rather than waiting for a home viewing.

Despite its early stage, such robust interest indicates the film might shatter records. Anticipation is high to escalate further following its world debut in London and a exclusive screening at the Cannes Film Festival coming up next month.

Enthusiasts are buzzing due to rumors that this movie marks the conclusion of the Mission: Impossible saga. Packed with thrilling action sequences, daring stunts, and the reappearance of Tom Cruise as Ethan Hunt, it seems like an unmissable spectacle.

Tom Cruise has historically had a successful Memorial Day weekend at the box office. In 2022, “Top Gun: Maverick” raked in over $126 million within three days, setting a new record for his biggest opening yet. If “The Final Reckoning” can achieve similar or even greater earnings, it will signify another major victory for Cruise and the franchise.

So, get ready — Ethan Hunt is back, and this mission might just be the biggest one yet.
