Captain America Civil War ended its second tuesday with a strong $5.9M (Slightly less than than Avengers: Age of Ultron's $5.99 and more than Iron Man 3's $5.1M) for a grand total of $306.6M domestic on its 12th day of release. Globally it accumulated a total of $14.8M which brings its worldwide total to $971.9M passing Zootopia's total of $971M to make the film the highest grossing movie of 2016. It is still to be seen if the movie will stay at #1 with Angry Birds and Neighbors 2 opening this weekend, but according to Deadline, Captain America Civil War is looking to stay on top with a $30 to $40M third Weekend. Captain America Civil War should be hitting the $1B mark before the weekend if not this weekend.

Will you be seeing Captain America Civil War again this weekend?



Captain America: Civil War” picks up where “Avengers: Age of Ultron” left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

I could see Angry Birds making more than 30-40 million this weekend.
CW may not remain on top but will still bring in lotsa bucks.

@TheArkhamKnight - With the reputaion of Man Of Steel and BvS plus a November release going up against Thor Ragnarok and Star Wars VIII? I doubt it would surpass Civil War from competition alone - regardless of the film's quality.
