The video game adaptation “Street Fighter” is off to a solid start at the U.S. box office, earning about $4 million in Thursday previews. Multiple outlets cite the same preview figure and note that the film begins rolling out with showtimes that include an early fan event.
Looking ahead, outlets project mixed outcomes for its opening weekend. “Street Fighter” is widely expected to debut in the domestic range of roughly $25 million to $35 million, with at least one report describing an expectation of opening above $30 million. The film’s production and financing details are also mentioned, including a reported net cost of around $82 million, co-financed by Legendary and Capcom. At the same time, another newcomer, “You Can See Everything,” is reported to be trailing with about $1.75 million to $2 million in previews, indicating a crowded weekend for new releases and leaving uncertainty over how well “Street Fighter” sustains early momentum.
