By surpassing the score of Avengers on North American soil, Black Panther has become the most lucrative superhero film across the Atlantic! Wakanda Forever!
A real phenomenon since its release in theaters in mid-February, Ryan Coogler's film continues to line up records: best start for an origin story, only film to have been No. 1 at the box office 5 weeks in a row (a record held until then by Avatar released in 2009) and now Black Panther can boast of being the most lucrative superhero film on American soil.
Indeed, by pocketing nearly 623 million greenbacks on American soil, Black Panther not only beat the first opus of the Avengers saga (2012), but also inherited the throne of the most lucrative superheroic work in the United States. A beautiful record that marks the popularity rating of the character played by Chadwick Boseman but especially the awareness of the public. Indeed, while Wonder Woman from competitor DC Comics was a hit last year and Marvel began filming Captain Marvel, its first film dedicated to a superheroine, seeing a film such as Black Panther, made up of a cast of African-American actors and actresses, is a sign that mentalities are beginning to change. And it did not escape the main interested parties since when questioned on the subject, most of the actors and actresses of the film expressed their delight at the idea of being part of a film that will resolutely and certainly change things in Hollywood.
Such a success that he also convinced the executives of Marvel to give a second adventure to the king of Wakanda, which should be on the spot still headed by the director Ryan Coogler, who, by infusing themes that are dear to him, has been able to make this Black Panther, a work with a political tone and therefore with the asserted maturity. And for all aficionados of the character, you will find him without fail in Avengers Infinity War which comes out in any pile a month.
