Still popular, "Captain Marvel" narrowly won the championship with a global box office of 87.12 million

Captain Marvel, a female superhero movie produced by Marvel Studios, topped the global box office chart with $87.12 million this weekend, but it was not an easy win. Us, the second directorial work by black American actor Jordan Peele, grossed $86.95 million worldwide in its first week, ranking second in the world by a very narrow margin. A Taiwanese romance film, More Than Blue, which was a big hit in the mainland, grossed $29.77 million over the weekend, breaking into the top three of the global box office chart.

Captain Marvel earned $52.1 million in overseas markets this weekend, and its cumulative overseas box office has reached $589 million, of which the Chinese mainland market has contributed a total of $146 million, and the North American market closed at $35.02 million, ranking second this week. As of Sunday, the film's global cumulative box office has reached $910 million, surpassing similar films such as Wonder Woman, and is expected to eventually become the third superhero origin film to break $1 billion in global box office after Black Panther ($1.346 billion) and Aquaman ($1.146 billion).

Taiwan's romantic film "More Than Blue" grossed $29.77 million last weekend, breaking into the top three of the global box office charts, with a cumulative box office of $136 million, most of which was contributed by mainland China, where the film has been the box office champion for two consecutive weeks, contributing $70.85 million (476 million RMB) in the seven days last week. The film was expanded to 40 theaters in North America last week, earning another $170,000 in three days over the weekend, and the cumulative box office in North America has exceeded $500,000.
