The highly anticipated third installment of the Marvel superhero franchise, “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,” has blasted off to an impressive start at the box office, earning $48.2 million in its debut on Friday alone. According to Forbes, it is predicted to rake in a whopping $250 million worldwide on its opening weekend, cementing its place as one of the biggest movies of the year.
A Star-Studded Cast
The film boasts an all-star cast that includes A-listers like Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Chris Pratt, and Sylvester Stallone, who have reprised their roles from the previous films in the series. The chemistry between the cast is a major highlight of the movie and has been praised by critics and fans alike.
Super Mario Bros. Movie Reign Comes to an End
After holding the top spot for the past month, “Super Mario Bros. Movie” was bumped down to second place, earning $4.2 million. The animated adventure, based on the popular Nintendo game, has become the first 2023 film to make over $1 billion at the global box office, making history as the fifth movie released during the pandemic times to rake in over $1 billion, after Spider-Man: No Way Home, Top Gun: Maverick, Jurassic World Dominion and Avatar: The Way of Water.
Evil Dead Rise and Love Again also make the list
The supernatural horror “Evil Dead Rise” took the third spot on Friday and earned close to $1.7 million. The film has already become the highest-grossing movie in its franchise, according to Collider. Meanwhile, “Love Again,” also released on Friday, took the fourth spot, but only managed to bring in $955,000. Despite featuring big names like Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Sam Heughan, and Celine Dion, the rom-com failed to impress critics and audiences alike.
Are you There God? Its Me, Margaret adaptation follows in fifth place
In fifth place was “Are you There God? It’s Me, Margaret,” the movie adaptation of the popular Judy Blume novel, with sales of $866,000. The film follows the story of a young girl as she navigates the ups and downs of adolescence, dealing with issues such as puberty, religion, and friendship. Despite its modest box office earnings, the movie has received critical acclaim for its honest portrayal of adolescence and has resonated with audiences of all ages.
Overall, it’s been a successful weekend for the movie industry, with “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” and “Super Mario Bros. Movie” leading the charge. As more movies continue to be released in theaters, it’ll be interesting to see which ones capture audiences’ attention and become the next big box office hits.
