| Disney’s Avengers: Infinity War grossed $4.194 million on Wednesday to remain in first place at the daily box office for a 20th consecutive day. That represented a 30.2 percent decline from Tuesday and a
solid 40.5 percent decline from last Wednesday. Avengers: Infinity War has grossed $562.919 million in 20 days. The film is running 19.2 percent ahead of the $472.240 million 20-day haul of 2012’s Marvel’s The Avengers
and 9.0 percent ahead of the $516.628 million 20-day gross of Black Panther earlier this year. BoxOfficeReport is predicting a fourth weekend take of $30.0 million for Avengers: Infinity War. |
