Breaking records already!

On Friday, February 16, Marvel will be releasing the much anticipated movie Black Panther. The movie starring Chadwick Boseman, Lupita N’yongo, Michael B. Jordan and many more have gathered rave reviews from everyone who was lucky enough to get a first look at the movie through different screenings around the world. Those reviews are leading the movie into the biggest February opening in the history of the month.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the film is scheduled to make $165 million this weekend alone. This is an increase from original prediction which set the film to make $120 million. Currently, Deadpool holds the record by earning $132.4 million over its release weekend.

Impressive.

According to Variety, the film has already broken the record for the most tweeted movie in the world in the past year beating films such as Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and Maze Runner: The Death Cure.
