NEW YORK (AP) — “Black Panther” scored $111.7 million at the North American box office in its second week according to final studio figures Monday, putting Ryan Coogler’s Marvel sensation on a trajectory that could ultimately land it among the highest grossing films.
Disney again revised up the weekend performance of “Black Panther,” after estimating that it grossed $108 million on Sunday. The strong second week sales pushed the film’s cumulative domestic gross past $400 million and its worldwide haul above $700 million.
“Black Panther” easily trounced new releases. The Warner Bros.-New Line comedy “Game Night,” starring Jason Bateman and Rachel McAdams, debuted with $17 million. Alex Garland’s sci-fi thriller “Annihilation,” starring Natalie Portman, opened with $11.1 million on about 2,000 screens.
Paramount earlier sold the international rights (except in China) for “Annihilation” to Netflix after disappointing reactions in test screenings. Though the film received largely good reviews, opening weekend audiences gave it a poor “C” CinemaScore.
