Black Panther flew past previous record-holder Deadpool’s 2016 mark of $152 million for a Presidents Day weekend opening.

The film is reported to gross $169 million from the international market, estimating a global debut of $361 million through Sunday.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Jurassic World and Marvel’s The Avengers rank just slightly higher than Black Panther for all-time opening weekends at the box office.

Boseman portrays the newly-appointed ruler of the technologically savvy Wakanda, King T’Challa.

T’Challa’s conflict with Michael B. Jordan’s character Erik Killmonger is highlighted throughout the film.

Letitia Wright, Lupita Nyong’o, Angela Bassett, Danai Gurira and Daniel Kaluuya, to name very few of the star-studded cast.
