There was clearly a lot of people waiting for the new movie about the character Doctor Strange (played by Benedict Cumberbatch). On its first opening day, the film already grossed $90 million in the United States. In the rest of the world, that was $139.3 million, by the way. That is the seventh best opening day ever, according to ‘The Hollywood Reporter’. In addition, it is estimated that the film could gross $185 million to even $200 million during its opening weekend. Disney puts that figure into perspective and indicates that the target is 170 million to 185 million dollars.

It is a big difference with what the first ‘Doctor Strange’ brought in during its opening weekend: that film raised ‘only’ $ 85.1 million. In the current top 10 of films with the best opening weekend in the United States, there are no fewer than 6 Marvel films. So there may be one more.
