Walt DisneyThanks to Black Panther and holdover business from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Coco and Thor: Ragnarok, Walt Disney has already topped the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office in just 52 days. And $491 million of that has come from Black Panther alone, as the MCU superhero flick races past $500m worldwide sometime today. For what it’s worth, I would argue that every dime that Black Panther earns means one less dime that Solo needs to make to keep the whole market share thing in play. For those who just came for Black Panther news, the Chadwick Boseman superhero movie earned another $14.5 million in North America, which is a 30% drop from Tuesday. Yes, it is possible that Black Panther ends up crossing $1 billion, but I don’t want to see any tears shed if it ends up frontloaded (or if China and Japan don’t care) to the tune of $850m.
