Walt Disney’s Thor: Love and Thunder Opens to Strong Box Office Numbers

Trending News ☀️

The Walt Disney Company ($NYSE:DIS)’s Thor: Love and Thunder opened to strong box office numbers, becoming the top draw at North American movie theaters and setting up a blockbuster battle for the rest of July’s moviegoer dollars. The film opened to $143M, keeping up a healthy buzz not only for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but also for tentpole releases in general this summer. It fell short of the $187M May opening of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, but topped the opening of Thor: Ragnarok, which debuted with $122.7M in 2017. As expected, it was trailed by Minions: The Rise of Gru, which fell off about 57% to $45.6M but stretched its domestic cumulative gross to $189.8M, and is on the edge of $400M worldwide. And while Top Gun: Maverick saw an uncharacteristic 40% week-over-week drop in business to $15.5M, good enough for third place on the weekend that came in the film’s seventh week of release. All in all, it was a strong weekend at the box office for Disney, with two of their films claiming the top two spots. It remains to be seen how long Thor: Love and Thunder can keep up its strong performance, but with the support of the Marvel brand and positive word-of-mouth, it looks like it could be a big hit for the company. Looking at Disney’s overall performance this year, it’s clear that the company is having a strong year at the box office. This includes hits like Raya and the Last Dragon, Soul, and of course, Marvel’s Black Panther and Captain Marvel. It’s clear that Disney’s box office dominance is not slowing down anytime soon, and with Thor: Love and Thunder giving them a strong start to the summer season, it looks like they are poised for yet another successful year.
