'Black Panther: Wakanda Forever' Opens With Staggering $330 Million Worldwide Sales & $180 Million In US
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is off to a strong start.
The second installment in Marvel‘s Black Panther saga opened in theaters on Friday (November 11) and had a very impressive weekend for ticket sales.
According to Variety, the movie opened with sales of $180 million in the United States. That was enough to easily best the previous record of November sales, which was set by 2013′s Hunger Games: Catching Fire. The former record-holder’s total was $158 million, meaning Wakanda Forever sold more than $20 million more.

The new Marvel movie’s sales totaled $330 million worldwide.
In case you were wondering, 2018′s Black Panther grossed an impressive $1.4 billion. The outlet predicted that it would be hard for Wakanda Forever to match those numbers in the long run.
However, the new movie currently has the second-strongest opening weekend in the U.S. in 2022. It is only behind its MCU partner Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
The movie also has the third-best post-pandemic domestic opening. Multiverse of Madness is in second place while 2021′s Spider-Man: No Way Home holds the top spot.
