‘All hail the King’<\/i><\/p>\n

‘Black Panther<\/a>,’ Marvel’s first film directed by an African-American, brought in an estimated $192 million for its three-day debut in North America this weekend. That’s the fifth biggest opening of all time.<\/p>\n

The opening for the film starring Chadwick Boseman and Michael B. Jordan did not just shatter expectations, it broke multiple box office records too.<\/p>\n

It blew away the record for the largest opening for an African-American director. That belonged to F. Gary Gray and ‘The Fate of the Furious,’ which opened to $98 million last April.<\/p>\n

Disney estimates that the film will bring in $218 million domestically for the four day holiday weekend. The film brought in an opening of $361 million around the world.<\/p>\n

‘Black Panther’ also shattered the record for an opening in February, which belonged to ‘Deadpool,’ the R-rated superhero film from 20th Century Fox that brought in $132 million when it opened in 2016.<\/p>

It is the second biggest opening for a Marvel Studios film, behind 2012’s ‘The Avengers.’ It out paced other huge hits like ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron,’ ‘Captain America: Civil War’ and ‘Iron Man 3.’ It is the studio’s 18th straight number one opening.<\/p>\n

The record-breaking weekend is watershed moment for Hollywood. With ‘Black Panther’ reaching box office heights that have eluded other African-American titles, the film’s totals could impact change in the industry by encouraging diversity in front of and behind the camera.<\/p>\n

The film is an ‘important milestone,’ according to comScore senior media analyst Paul Dergarabedian.<\/p>\n

\u00bbBlack Panther’ exceeded even the grandest box office expectations while simultaneously breaking down cinematic barriers and marking a turning point in the evolution of the genre,’ he said.<\/p>\n

The film garnered an ‘A+’ CinemaScore from audiences and a near perfect 97%<\/a> score on review site Rotten Tomatoes, which makes it one of the best-reviewed superhero movies of all time.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
