Marvel superhero movie Black Widow raked in an estimated $215 million worldwide at the box office in its opening weekend, Disney announced Sunday. The debut represents the largest domestic box office opening since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic and Marvel's third highest domestic opening for an origin story after Black Panther and Captain Marvel.
The latest installment of the Marvel Cinematic Universe made its worldwide debut Friday in movie theaters and on the Disney Plus streaming service, the latter with a $30 Premier Access fee.
But apparently the theater was the place to see the movie for many fans, as the movie earned $80 million at the domestic box office, $78 million in international box office receipts and more than $60 million through Disney Plus Premier Access worldwide.
