Black Widow continues to break the post-pandemic box office record.
The latest Marvel movie — the first released in two years — just crossed the $200 million mark at the world box office, making it the highest-grossing movie since the business took a hard hit during the COVID-19 health crisis.
Black Widow is also the fastest movie to cross the $100 million mark in North America, taking just five days to do so. The previous record-holder was F9 with eight days.
Scarlett Johansson's solo MCU debut in Black Widow raked in $80 million in its opening weekend in North America. With an additional $78 million in international box office sales and more than $60 million in Disney+ Premier Access rentals, the movie's opening grossed over $215 million, according to CNBC.
The movie also stars Florence Pugh, David Harbour and Rachel Weisz.
