Black Panther & A Wrinkle In Time Top The Box Office

Posted on by

This weekends worldwide box office estimates have been revealed and Disney have grabbed the top two slots with Black Panther and their new movie, “A Wrinkle In Time”.  It also sees Black Panther take over a billion dollars at the box office and considering this movie was released a month ago, not even Disney can knock Marvel off the top of the charts.

21st Century Fox also continue to top of the charts with Red Sparrow and the Oscar winning “The Shape Of Water”.

comScore’s Senior Media Analyst Paul Dergarabedian commented, “Disney’s ‘Black Panther’ has a milestone weekend at the box office as it crosses the $1 billion mark globally and opens in China to $66.5 million placing it #1 in that market while also grabbing the number one spot for the fourth consecutive weekend in theaters around the world as it continues to move up the charts becoming the seventh highest grossing film of all-time in North America after just 24 days in theaters.”

While “A Wrinkle In Time” did hit the second spot in the charts, it is being considered a disappointment since it has taken around the same in the opening weekend as other box office Disney “flops” like Alice Through The Looking Glass and Oz: The Great and Powerful.  However it should be noted that the movie hasn’t opened in all regions, such as the UK yet.
