Avengers: Infinity War Topped Justice League‘s Global Box Office Take in Just 6 Days

Most folks expected Avengers: Infinity War to leave a smoldering crater where the box office used to be, and it did: The massive Marvel Cinematic Universe centerpiece had the biggest opening weekend in history, demolishing just about every record it could have. That’s not all it demolished: Infinity War also laid waste to Warner Bros.’ DC team-up Justice League, topping that big-budget disappointment’s global gross in just six days, per TheWrap.

Avengers: Infinity War had grossed $725 million around the globe as of Tuesday, after being released in 21 markets a week ago today. That amount, accumulated with staggering speed, handily tops the $657.9 million mark reached by Justice League, which, according to Box Office Mojo, was in theaters for some 17 weeks, as opposed to, say, less than one. Also according to Box Office Mojo, Infinity War currently stands at $784.9 million worldwide, a number that’s sure to continue to balloon in the coming days. Don’t be surprised when Infinity War breaks the record for the fastest film to make more than $1 billion worldwide, currently held by Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which accrued that amount in only 12 days.
