As Black Panther: Wakanda Forever prepares to enter its third weekend, the superhero flick has managed to achieve another big box office milestone. After earning $9.5 million at the box office on Tuesday, the movie has officially surpassed the $300 million mark stateside. The film’s domestic haul is currently sitting at $303.7 million. It has now become the seventh film to surpass $300 million domestically this year, joining the likes of Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Jurassic World: Dominion, Minions: The Rise of Gru, The Batman and Thor: Love and Thunder.
Heading into the weekend, Wakanda Forever is currently projected to pull in another $40 million, which should keep it atop the box office. The only real competition the film faces is from another Disney title, Strange World, which is expected to pull in around $30 million in its opening weekend. That’s on the lower side for Strange World, as Disney’s Encanto did $40.5 million at the same time last year.
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever stars Angela Bassett, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Danai Gurira, Florence Kasumba, Lupita Nyong’o, Martin Freeman, Tenoch Huerta, Dominique Thorne, Michaela Coel, Mabel Cadena and Alex Livinalli.
