Black Panther still #1


For the weekend of March 2-4, 2018, Black Panther is still crushing the competition. It's on pace to pass The Last Jedi domestically. It could pass The Avengers to not only be the high-grossing Marvel movie but could wind up being the 5th highest grossing movie of all time.

Worldwide it's at $900 million, which still puts it just behind Jumanji. 32 films have passed the $1 billion worldwide gross mark, and Black Panther will probably join them sometime next week.

Next weekend it should be a real race between it and A Wrinkle in Time for the #1 spot.

Of the other newcomers, Red Sparrow edged Death Wish. Not surprising. Jennifer Lawrence is currently a bigger draw than Bruce Willis, and Death Wish had terrible reviews.

Opens March 9
A WRINKLE IN TIME with Oprah Winfrey, Reese Witherspoon and Chris Pine.
STRANGERS: PREY AT NIGHT with Christina Hendricks and Bailee Madison.
THE HURRICANE HEIST with Toby Kebbell, Maggie Grace and Ryan Kwanten.
GRINGO with Charlize Theron, David Oyelowo, Joel Edgerton and Amanda Seyfried.
