It’s been an impressive opening weekend for Thor:Ragnarok which smashed it when it comes to box office numbers. According to a piece in Entertainment Weekly, the film crossed $48.6 million dollars on Friday alone as is expected to finish its opening weekend with a gross of $120 million.
This means that Thor: Ragnarok is the most successful film in the franchise to date. It also marks the first time director Taika Waititi has been at the helm.
To show just how well Thor: Ragnarock is stacking up against other hits in the Marvel universe, Guardians of the Galaxy, Vol. 2 earned $56.3 million on it’s opening night. Spider-Man: Homecoming came it at around $50.5 million.
The latest film in the franchise sees Chris Hemsworth reprising the role as he squares up against Hela (The Goddess of Death) played by Cate Blanchett. When Hela takes over the throne of Asgard and destroys Thor’s mighty hammer, he finds himself imprisoned on the other side of the Universe. What ensues is a race against time to stop the destruction of his home world with help from a few friends both new and old. The film also stars Jeff Goldblum, Tom Hiddleston, Tessa Thompson, Karl Urban, Mark Ruffalo, Idris Elba, Anthony Hopkins and Benedict Cumberbatch.
Thor:Ragnarok opened nationwide on November 3, 2017.
