Captain America: Brave New World Projected to Beat Estimates With $100 Million Domestic Box Office Over Presidents Day Weekend

Captain America: Brave New World surpasses expectations, raking in an estimated $100 million domestically during its Presidents Day weekend debut.

Comscore, a box office tracking service, reports the latest Marvel Studios film grossed approximately $88.5 million across 4,105 theaters over the three-day period, projecting a four-day total of $100 million. Adding its impressive $92.4 million international earnings, Captain America: Brave New World boasts an estimated $192.4 million global weekend box office.

Deadline reports the film's production budget was $180 million, with a break-even point estimated at $425 million globally.

This strong opening places Captain America: Brave New World as the fourth-best Presidents Day debut, trailing only three other superhero films: Black Panther ($242 million), Deadpool ($152 million), and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania ($120 million).

Despite mixed critical reception—IGN awarded it a 5/10, criticizing its lack of originality and underwhelming plot despite strong performances from the cast—the film's success is noteworthy. The film's long-term performance will be crucial in determining whether it can reverse the recent trend of underperforming MCU films (excluding last year's highly successful Deadpool & Wolverine), and build anticipation for upcoming releases like Thunderbolts in May and The Fantastic Four: First Steps in July.
