How and why it’s set to rock the box office?

$125 million.

That is the figure the movie is projected to earn in its opening weekend.

‘Deadline’ explains…

Even if the film grosses north of $95M it will still be a record opening for the month of August, beating Disney/Marvel’s The Guardians of the Galaxy which woke up the final sleepy summer month two years ago with a three-day of $94.3M.

In addition to breaking an August record, Suicide Squad would also mark a three-day opening record for Will Smith, his all-time debut belonging to 2007’s I Am Legend ($77.2M).
