Doctor Strange in a multiverse of madness The domestic box office opened the weekend with $187 million, slightly revised from the $185 million projected yesterday. The film marks the biggest weekend of director Sam Raimi’s career, being a huge hit spider man 3, which grossed $151 million (which at the time was incredible, but has since dwindled to a generation of billions from blockbuster movies). It also more than doubled its opening weekend numbers of $85 million Doctor Strangereleased in 2017. Since then, the character has appeared in Avengers: Infinity WarAnd Avengers: EndgameAnd Spider-Man: There is no room for homeThree of the highest-grossing films in cinema history.
Given Strange’s ties to these three films, as well as the acclaimed WandaVision and the wider Marvel Cinematic Universe, it is no surprise that the film improved at the box office over its predecessor. However, for a character like Doctor Strange Batman vs Superman The numbers are a good indicator of how much box office muscle the MCU can muster.
The $187 million is more than Disney reported, but actually a bit less than some experts predicted yesterday, when analysts thought the sequel could fetch up to $195 million with a whopping sum on Sunday. The movie made $39 million yesterday, a 32% drop from its figures on Saturday.
Given the film’s lackluster CinemaScore (by Marvel standards only), it’ll be interesting to see how strong its second week numbers are. Will the hype, cameos, and power of the MCU be enough to keep it from sinking, even if fans don’t come back again and again? before There is no place for homeHowever, the last three MCU releases fell between 52% and 67% between the first two weeks at the box office, even though 67% is Black Widowwhich had a day and date release on Disney+. Spider-Man: There is no room for home It also saw a huge drop from week to week, but that was a combination of a totally brutal opening weekend, and the fact that the second weekend was Christmas, so it’s kind of an anomaly as well.
You can see the official summary of Doctor Strange in a multiverse of madness less.
Now that Iron Man and Captain America have left after a fierce battle in Avengers: Endgame, the former genius surgeon and most powerful magician of all time, Doctor Strange, is expected to play an active role as a central character in The Avengers. However, using his magic to manipulate time and space at will with a forbidden spell considered the most dangerous opened the door to a mysterious madness called the “Multiverse”.
To restore a world in which everything is changing, Strange enlists the help of his ally Wong, the Sorcerer Supreme and the most powerful Scarlet Witch in the Avengers, Wanda. But a terrible threat looms over humanity and the entire universe that can no longer be done by their power alone. What’s even more surprising is that the greatest threat in the universe is just like Doctor Strange.
