Black Panther just became the top-grossing superhero film of all time in the U.S. after surpassing the $623.4 million The Avengers made in 2012. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Marvel Studios and Disney reached the milestone on Saturday (March 24).
The Ryan Coogler-directed film is also one of seven films to ever earn $600 million or more domestically and has been smashing records since its February 16 release.
Black Panther has grossed over $1.2 billion worldwide and by the end of Sunday (March 26), it will reportedly surpass Iron Man 3 to become the third-biggest comic book adaptation behind The Avengers and Avengers: Age of Ultron.
The nearly all-black cast features Chadwick Boseman as T’Challa/Black Panther, Lupita Nyong’o, Michael B. Jordan, Danai Gurira, Daniel Kaluuya, Letitia Wright, Winston Duke, Angela Bassett, Forest Whitaker and Andy Serkis.
The movie was anchored by the Black Panther: The Album soundtrack, which was curated by Kendrick Lamar and Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith. The project features Future, Jay Rock, K. Dot, James Blake, SZA, ScHoolboy Q and more.
“All The Stars” featuring SZA and “King’s Dead” featuring Lamar, Future, Jay Rock and James Black both received visual treatments. [apple_news_ad type=”any”]
Black Panther 2 is reportedly in the works and Marvel Studios say it already has a “solid direction.”
Average Movie pushed by a political Agenda.
STF UP HATER! Probably can’t the stand the fact that it’s movie with a nearly all-black cast.
Absolutely no problem with that. And btw negative talk without no reason is hating. Just because someone criticise he is not hating, lil snowflake.
I thought the same til l saw the movie…what do you think is the agenda?
I thought it was really good, plus inspiring!!
you must have a lot of friends
HA! Marvel Cinematic Universe stays CRUSHING the DC Extended Universe. DCEU films are terrible.
I’m guessing you thought Antman was good? Marvel fanbois be delusional.
And I’m guessing you thought Batman v Superman was epic. DC fan boys be embarrassed.
Where is the Deadpool Trailer, HHDX? Black People are in it too. LMFAO
White bosses laughing all the way to the bank. It’s a shame that some of us black people think this movie was about black excellence,old money having white bosses saw that the movie industry was going to the dogs due to torrenting and whatnot so they sat and thought, “what if we made a movie about black superheroes, I’m sure the blacks would flock to cinemas”. I haven’t watched this movie and will only watch it on my laptop when it’s on the pirate bay
wow, unhappy when you dont get a movie with an all black cast, unhappy when you do. then you talk about stealing it. typical victim mentality. i bet you steal music too. With that mentality why dont you just live off the govt because working for a white owned company would be too much like slavery… you sir are a moron.
The truth remains, black people didn’t need an all black superhero movie, it’s done nothing for us except giving money to the white man. As for stealing, the white man stole our ancestors from Africa so I’ll just be returning the favor. Do you seriously think black people all over were yearning for a black panther movie as if it was a life or death situation? I don’t think so. With this movie grossing so much, who do you think will get wealthier(not rich) off this movie, the “all black cast” or the 73 year old white bosses at the top who wear Polo golf tshirts and talk about “why didnt we give ‘the coloreds’ their own movie sooner? Black people will go to a fictional movie about a fictional African country that talks about fictional people with super powers and REFUSE to do the same and flock cinemas for actual black heroes like Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King Jr, Shaka Zulu etc.
Wakanda IS NOT REAL!
There’s a Blue Wave coming!! A TSUNAMI!!!!!
At last a true super black hero
Don’t forget SPAWN bruh. Granted the movie wasn’t great, but creator Todd McFarlane is directing the reboot. It’s set for a 2019 release. Black Panther is cool, but Spawn is way iller.
And dont forget Blade too
Logan still the best.
Quite possibly the most overhyped movie of all time.
Seriously DX u have to get off this movies dick… like how many articles can a so called hip hop site make about a non hip hop movie lol btw the movie is so overrated!
Wait til Deadpool 2 comes out then you black peoples will be crying when is white people get back on top again. Hahaha!
How the fuck it can be top-grossing if Avengers got 1.5 billion? Get the fuck outta here with that fake negro numbers
Domestically you lil reptilian dumbo
Good movie because its refreshing, emotionally deep,and a slightly political. Not some typical formulated bullshit movie solely about a douchebag gaining superpowers and saving the world from another douchebag. Let’s do hope tho that some of the profits help some families in poverty on that great continent of Africa.
Ignorant people in the comments. People of all colors paid to see this movie. Some twice or three times. It’s refreshing for people to see a mostly black cast. It’s kinda like a secret curiosity for a lot of people who wouldn’t normally watch an all black casted movie. All super hero movies do big numbers to begin with. Add something different, numbers grow larger. Just like any business.
Before Black Panther I thought black people were sub human but now I know better. Thanks Disney for making a bunch of money off of misguided sjws and “woke” black people who think giving a corporation their money is a political statement.
Are you people really that stupid?
Or they just like they movie. Marvel movies always do big numbers. Why do you get so mad when people like something you don’t?!?
Better to at least support the corporation that put out a near all black cast, were we know they will at least benefit from it. I mean shit what we suppose to do sit around and watch nothing??? I don’t even really watch movies just mainly tv shows and sports. and the tv shows I watch or mainly starring black actors such as Power, insecure, Survivors remorse, The Chi, Luke Cage If black people didn’t support this movie then hollywood would be like see told yall a majority black cast wouldn’t smash box office, now that this movie did what it did maybe it opens the door for similar movies with a black cast. So you mean to tell me some of yall wont support a nearly all black cast because some white people are involved wtf. Are yall saying the same shit about the food you eating, video games you playing, computer/phone you on, clothing you got on, what about the job you or your girl go to?? Supervisor prob white, owner of the company prob white, you gonna quit, or keep getting them checks to feed family? Some people try so hard to be deep you sound dumb.
You still think Blacks are subhuman. It fits into your narrative to maintain genetic dominance.
Big fan of Lupita,she always remind me that i need to go to Africa and explore more talent.shouts to black community and Fuck TRUMP type
this is the lion king movie mixed with some marvel shit and there you got all the black community hyped up and acting like idiots
One over looked thing that needs to be pointed out that when adjusted for inflation it’s 4th behind Avengers, Dark Knight and Spider-Man
Hope it continues to pass them though!!
I bet some white folk will be mad at this n make sure avengers infinity war tops black panther
i bet white people made more money off this movie than black people.
Great movie.
