All hail the king of Wakanda.
Marvel's The Black Panther is now the #1 superhero movie of all time at the domestic box office. Panther grossed another $17 million pushing its gross to $631 million putting it ahead of Marvel's The Avengers which grossed $623 million in 2012.
The Black Panther is also the #5 domestic grossing movie of all time has passed both The Avengers and The Last Jedi this weekend.
There's still the possibility it gets to #4 all time during it's run if it can catch Jurassic World's $652 million.
But you may want to write all of this records in pencil as Avengers: Infinity War opens April 27, 2018, and will be a legit challenger to many of Black Panther's box office records. Although I don't think that it will pass Black Panther's domestic grosses with films like Solo: A Star Wars Story and Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom opening over the summer months taking screens from Infinity War.
We shall see, but for now, Black Panther is not only the king of Wakanda but the king of all superhero movies. All hail the king!
