Recently, Deadpool and Wolverine broke into the top 10 highest-grossing previews of all time by grossing a record-shattering $38.5 million in Thursday previews. It’s the only film in 2024 to crack the top 10 elite roster that includes Hollywood’s biggest franchises, including Avengers, Star Wars, Spider-Man and a Harry Potter film.

Despite being the biggest film of the year, grossing $1.6 billion worldwide, the Disney animated sequel Inside Out 2 did not make the list. It grossed just $13 million in Thursday previews. Post-pandemic, only two films, including Deadpool and Wolverine, have recorded the biggest previews. Here are the ten biggest paid previews of all time.

It would come as no surprise that five of the top ten spots are occupied by MCU films, with Avengers: Endgame leading the list with a staggering $60 million in paid previews. Star Wars is the only other franchise to boast multiple films in the elite roster.

Despite being released in the post-COVID era, when films struggled at the box office, Spider-Man recorded the third-highest-grossing previews with $50 million. Other than Deadpool and Wolverine, it is the only post-pandemic film to crack the elite list. Let’s look at the ten biggest paid previews of all time.
