How Much Despicable Me 4 Made On Opening Night


The summer box office is in full swing with another big title landing in theaters this weekend. Despicable Me 4 opened nationwide during the July 4th week with big box office aspirations. The latest animated film had some big competition, with Inside Out 2 still being a heavy competitor after recently crossing a billion dollars at the box office, and A Quiet Place: Day One still being a heavy hitter for adult audiences. However, Despicable Me 4 was still able to perform well, as the movie performed above what its predecessor, Minions: Rise of Gru did during its 2022 July 4th weekend. 

On Wednesday, July 3rd, Despicable Me 4 did preview showings which racked in the dollars, predicting the film would open at number one this upcoming weekend. According to Deadline, the movie grossed $27 million after being released in 4,030 theaters. This was slightly below predictors, which had the movie grossing $28 million. This was despite early reviews of Despicable Me 4 being very poor, showing that loyal fans of the franchise are still showing up to see new installments.
