Furious 7 Holds on to First, Age of Ultron Over $200 Million
In its fourth week at the box-office, Furious 7 remained in first place on the domestic chart, earning an estimated $18.3 million. The film has earned $320.5 million domestically.
Overseas is the real story though. Furious 7 is only the third film to earn over $1 billion overseas, and currently has earned $1.001 billion. When you combine its domestic and international totals, the film has earned $1.32 billion. It is now the top grossing film ever in China.
The film currently sits in fifth in worldwide grosses and will absolutely get to fourth. There’s a chance it dethrones the first Avengers film which earned $1.5 billion.
To do that, the movie will have to have some impressive legs (wheels?) and still perform when Avengers: Age of Ultron opens this coming weekend domestically. That film has already opened in some overseas markets and has earned $201.2 million. Disney has said that’s 44 percent better than the first Avengers film and 24 percent better than Iron Man 3. Internationally, the film still has yet to open in Span, Mexico, and China.
In other comic related movie news, Kingsman: The Secret Service added $550,000 to its total. The film has earned a solid $126.5 million domestically, and $273.2 in foreign markets. Its total is $399,635,000 as of now. The film’s budget was $81 million, so that’s a pretty solid return for the film.
