“Black Panther” has surpassed $1 billion at the worldwide box office, challenging industry norms about films with black casts.

The Marvel blockbuster passed the major benchmark on Friday, Forbes reports.

The film is now the United States’ ninth domestically highest-grossing film of all time, and had the second-largest four-day domestic opening weekend. “Black Panther” brought in $242 million in the U.S. over Presidents Day weekend, behind the $288 million “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” made when it opened in 2015.

The international success of “Black Panther” has challenged the myth that films with predominately black casts don’t sell ― and it helps unravel “unwritten Hollywood rules,” Jeff Bock, a senior analyst at entertainment research firm Exhibitor Relations, told The New York Times.

“I think about it like a wall crumbling,” Bock said. “In terms of ‘Black Panther,’ no studio can say again, ’Oh, black movies don’t travel, overseas interest will be minimal.’”

Stars of the film, including Chadwick Boseman, Lupita Nyong’o and Dania Gurira, have spoken out about the importance of representation in the movie. “Black Panther,” which is set in the fictional country of Wakanda, shows the possibilities of an African society untouched by colonialism and gender inequity.

“I think there’s a thirst for these images,” Boseman told NBC. “There’s a real thirst for black superheroes.”

I was about to say, what a load of bollocks then I realised that its a huff post link so, yes, it is complete bollocks. Lets see if a non-franchise film can sell the same.

Woohoo!

looks entertaining.

Not sure why the stars of the movie were commenting on how this will help with the black repressed, WTF?

I didn't think the movie was that great...

I will watch anything Marvel related.
But congrats to BP!

Keep your white privilege to yourself.

Great movie! Only one black guy in the whole theater when my kid and I went to go see it. #OrangeCounty

I was confused and thought it was a reboot of Planet of the Apes from the trailer.

because the agenda the mainstream media is spreading, is that skin color is something we should all focus on and talk about 24/7 (in short: being a racist), instead of individual skill and personality.

You sound like a racist.

Look at the butthurt snowflake chime in! Daily Stormer down for you?

I bet you whisper that in your sister's ear as you are banging her

It probably can't, but it doesn't matter. Black Panther and the rest of the Marvel movies contain characters that people really like, and offer some good stories and thrills that reach a really wide audience. Clever tie-ins with characters from other movies almost insures that most people that see 1 Marvel movie, will see the next one, and the next one.

Epic win for Marvel & Disney.

Be either. It was "ok", I liked it etc, but it's not the best of the MCU.


Wait. What? Time for meds?


OMG...

Hahahaha! :thumbsup

exactly this...


of which i´m amazed at the racism in the world!



We all have awards, but not the White music awards like the Black music awards. & now I notice in Britain, Asian music channel, alas, the usual channel is all ethnics & religions.

It seems, if you´re white, you need to involve black & brown, Asian or what ever or you´re racist & if you´re Black or Asian, you can be involved in the white channels but also have your own=?????? :2 cents:

IT sucked ! :2 cents: :thumbsup

And whites are the minority in the world .

better start being nice :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
