Captain Marvel: How much did it make at the Box Office worldwide?
By Sandy C.
When we say Captain Marvel took over the box office this weekend, we mean literally took over it. The movie exceeded expectations and broke several records along the way.
Despite the haters and naysayers, Captain Marvel premiered with soaring results! At the moment, these numbers are early estimates based on sales so far and pre-sale tickets. So how big of an opening are we talking? Try $153 million domestically and $302 million overseas, for a grand total of $455 million!
When compared to other worldwide openings, Captain Marvel falls in 6th place, behind Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, Jurassic World, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, The Fate of the Furious and Avengers: Infinity War, in that order.
