Good evening Disney friends,
Well another weekend is coming to pass and the House of Mouse rules again. This weekend saw Black Panther continue to rule the roost. By taking in over 40 million dollars, it claimed the third highest 4th weekend ever for a film. Just like last weekend, the only two films to do better than Black Panther were Avatar and Star Wars: The Force Awakens. The film also crossed the $1 billion mark worldwide which makes it just the 33rd film to do so. Of those 33 films, Disney pictures produced 16 of the films. Disney also holds the number 2 film of the weekend with A Wrinkle in Time. The film did come in a little bit below expectations with around $33 million; however, part of the lower than expected earnings comes from the fact that Black Panther is still doing so well. Moving back to Black Panther, it is the first Marvel film to spend four weeks at number one. It is also the highest grossing first movie for a Marvel character. Moving back to A Wrinkle in Time, it will be interesting to see how this plays out over the next few weeks since it is a family film and spring breaks for kids in elementary, middle, and high schools will be occurring over the next few weeks.
Have a great week and we will see if maybe Black Panther will be able to hold on to the number one spot for a fifth weekend.
Thanks for sharing your time with me.
