CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR DOMINATES GLOBAL BOX OFFICE AND THE MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE SPEEDS PAST $10 BILLION WORLDWIDE



As Captain America: Civil War tops the American Box office for the second weekend in a row, its total domestic gross stands $295.9 million dollars while at the international box office, its total gross stands at  $645 million bringing its worldwide cume to $942.9 million. Civil War’s performance so far has driven the worldwide gross of the thirteen films currently making up the MCU from 2008's Ironman to 2016’s Civil War itself to well over $10 billion dollars.


With the films global campaign still quite a considerable distance from cooling down, the fil seems well on its way to becoming the first movie of 2016 to cross the $1billion dollar mark. This comes in the wake of disappoints in Batman v Superman which was projected would be the first to cross the threshold.

The $1 billion dollar threshold is a prestige class that only 24 films have ever reached with the top 3 on the chart being Avatar ($2,788.0 billion), Titanic ($2,1186.8 billion) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($2,066.3 billion). Other films on the list include Jurassic World, Marvel’s The Avengers, Furious 7, Avengers: Age of Ultron, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and Frozen.
