Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is always first in the US…

Another 66 million people are expected over the weekend, after 17.9 million on Friday. It is the result of the second weekend of Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, which is down 64% from its debut, is still better than the recent decline in Marvel films. Actually, as much Thor: Love and ThunderThe decline was 67.7% while l Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness We got to 67%. Also consider Black Widow (-67.8%, the worst number ever for a Marvel product), the four biggest drops to that mark have come in the past year and a half. Is it possible to think that the availability of films on Disney + in a relatively short time could be (in part) a reason, given that subscribers have now understood that after about two months they will be available to them within their subscription? However, with today’s numbers, the film should total 286.7 million, so basically the same number (there’s only a 2% difference) with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.

Not a great character, but definitely a lot better than what other arthouse novelties get, Me too (Saeed said), in sixth place with $2.27 million over the weekend, after $830,000 on Friday.

Then he moved to the fourth position Black Adams, which with another 4.1 million over the weekend (-49%), brings it to a total of 156.6 million.
