With minimal competition approaching in the near future, the film is generally expected to dominate the box office until the release of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story one month later.
Broken down, this comes out to roughly $70-80 million at the North American box office, and around $90-125 million overseas.
A report from Deadline indicates that the upcoming opening weekend for Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them has the potential to conjure up some serious cash.
Based upon current projections, it appears that the first installment in the Harry Potter spin-off series could garner a massive $160-$205 million opening weekend gross.
