Star Trek Beyond leaped out to a big lead on Thursday, earning over $5.5 million on its preview night. Paramount pointed out that Star Trek Beyond’s opening figure is comparable to the latest James Bond movie Spectre’s opening figures of $5.3 million. The third installment of the movie is expecting to do between $55-60 million this weekend, far lower than the first two Star Trek reboot movies. Despite the expected softer opening, Paramount has already announced a Star Trek 4 is in development, which will feature Chris Hemsworth as Captain Kirk’s father. Also opening this weekend are Ice Age: Collision
