Sony/Columbia’s “Bad Boys: Ride or Die” has faced uncertain box office prospects in the run-up to its release but got some hopeful signs on Thursday as it grossed $5.9 million from preview screenings.
The fourth installment of Will Smith and Martin Lawrence’s buddy cop action series earned just slightly less than the $6.4 million preview total of “Bad Boys for Life,” which went on to earn a $62 million 3-day opening on MLK weekend in 2020.
“Ride or Die” was never projected to earn that much, but pre-release projections had been on a downward slope over the past couple of weeks, sliding down to $40-45 million.
