BOX OFFICE: IRON MAN 3 Set To Cross $1B Global And $300M Domestic By Thursday
Love it or hate it, Iron Man 3 continues to go from strength to strength at the box office! We now know that by tomorrow, the Marvel Studios threequel will cross $1 billion after just 23 days of release and that it will hit $300 million in North America. Read on for details!
Deadline reports that Shane Black's Iron Man 3 will cross the $1 billion mark tomorrow at the worldwide box office after only 23 days of release. The latest numbers have its domestic cume at $294.7 million (after 14 days) and $685.6 million internationally. These figures make it the 16th biggest film of all-time and analysts are already predicting that it will ultimately become the 5th highest grossing film of all-time by the end of its theatrical run. In comparison, Marvel's The Avengers took only 19 days to cross $1 billion, but Iron Man 3 has actually outperformed the superhero ensemble in a number of international territories including China, Korea, and the Ukraine.
Marvel Studios’ Iron Man 3 pits brash-but-brilliant industrialist Tony Stark/Iron Man against an enemy whose reach knows no bounds. When Stark finds his personal world destroyed at his enemy’s hands, he embarks on a harrowing quest to find those responsible. This journey, at every turn, will test his mettle. With his back against the wall, Stark is left to survive by his own devices, relying on his ingenuity and instincts to protect those closest to him. As he fights his way back, Stark discovers the answer to the question that has secretly haunted him: does the man make the suit or does the suit make the man?
