AFTER only eight days of release, Iron Man 3 has already surpassed the $300
million mark at the international box office – and the $200 million Disney/
marvel release is only getting started.
The film’s hit at the box office was driven by the incredible
business in China, where the film earned an estimated $21.5 million yesterday –
the best opening day in box office history.
The threequel, which stars Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow, got off
to a faster start than The Avengers overseas (Iron Man 3 opened to $198.4
million; The Avengers bowed with $185.1 million, though it will be very tough
for Iron Man 3 to match that film’s $888.4 million international total. We’ll
have to wait and see!
