YOUR WEEKEND
BOX OFFICE

The Top 5 Highest-Grossing Films in America Over the Weekend

Marvel/Disney's blockbuster Avengers: Infinity War absolutely dominated in theaters, breaking the domestic opening weekend box office record and worldwide opening record with $250m and $630m, respectively. Prior to Infinity War, 2015's Star Wars: The Force Awakens held the U.S. record with approximately $247.9m.

It's worth noting that Black Panther—also part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe—returned to the Top 5 this weekend. The film, already beyond acclaimed, bowed with north of $202m in February.

1. Avengers: Infinity War (Buena Vista) $250.0m 4,474/$55,878 avg. (debut)
2. A Quiet Place (Paramount) $10.7m 3,565/$2,987 avg. (week 4)
3. I Feel Pretty (STX) $8.1m 3,440/$2,363 avg. (week 2)
4. Rampage (Warner Bros.) $7.1m 3,508/$2,025 avg. (week 3)
5. Black Panther (Buena Vista) $4.4m 1,650/$2,655 avg. (week 11)
