The box office reign of “Avengers: Infinity War” did not last too long

Superhero film “Deadpool 2” won the domestic box office this weekend with an estimated $125 million opening weekend, according to Fox. That was enough to topple Disney and Marvel Studios’ “Avengers: Infinity War” off the top spot, which it held for three weeks.

However, in less than a month of release, the superhero film (Infinity War), which stars Robert Downey Jr. and Chris Evans, has made $1.81 billion globally. That makes it the fourth biggest global opening in history and the highest grossing superhero film of all time.

This weekend “Infinity War” made $113.1 million around the world following its opening in the world’s second-biggest movie market, China, last weekend.
