Avengers: Infinity War has started rolling out across the world and in just two days, the movie has made a whopping $95 million. That an awesome start but even more impressive is the $39 million the Russo Brothers helmed release earned during Thursday evening screenings in North America.
That's the best number of any superhero movie ever topping previous record holder The Dark Knight ($30.6 million). In comparison, Black Panther made $25.2 million back in February. For now, though, Star Wars: The Force Awakens remains the record holder with $57 million, with The Last Jedi ($45 million) behind it and Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows in third place with a solid $43.5 million.
Analysts remain convinced that Avengers: Infinity War will debut with upwards of $225 million this weekend, while current estimates point to it having made $500 million worldwide by Sunday.
Needless to say, the sky appears to be the limit for the Marvel movie and it's going to be interesting seeing just how high it goes by the time all is said and done. It's going to get fans talking, that's for sure, and demands repeat viewings. Have you checked it out yet? Share your thoughts below.
