Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Box Office Projection Is A Massive $175 Million For Opening Weekend

Closing the roster of the Marvel Cinematic Universe this year is Black Panther: Wakanda Forever and early numbers are in for the projections on its opening weekend box office as reported by The Hollywood Reporter according to NRG tracking data, it would be at least $175 million.

The number is already huge but as per the data, that is just for North America. It doesn't include the global projection yet which means it could still grow given the final push for its media advertisements and surely, once the numbers for the international opening weekend comes in, it's definitely going to grow.

Considering the data, it could easily reach the numbers that the first Black Panther movie entered in during its opening weekend in February 2018 having $202 million domestically.

With the COVID-19 pandemic still ongoing, theaters are just starting to bounce back and these numbers are still affected by it. Had it been released without a global pandemic, it could considerably be more.
