The latest Marvel movie premiering in theatres this weekend, Ant-Man continued the trend of placing first in the numbers game during the opening weekend for the Disney / Marvel Studios. For Ant-Man that magic number was $58 million. Although the film did not meet the studio’s expectations of $60 million or more, Disney’s Distribution Chief, Dave Hollis said “no one else could take what is really an obsure character and launch it in such a big way.” At the cost of $130 million, Ant-Man hopes to make up the U.S. numbers with profits from the foreign moviegoers. Opening in 37 countries including Mexico, France, Russia and the U.K. Ant-Man brought in $56 million in foreign profits.
Ant-Man which stars Paul Rudd brings us one of the original Avengers, who with the help of a super suit, shrinks in size while gaining strength and the ability to control ants. The film has a bit of everything this Entertainment writer likes about Marvel films. A super hero, great soundtrack, funny moments, adventures and incredible battles between the good and bad guys makes Ant-Man one of Marvel’s great films.
