[UPDATE] Black Adam’s box office numbers are in, and the film earned $67 million in the US this weekend, which made it the biggest start of all time for a solo movie for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The movie made many millions more from international markets for a global first-weekend start of $140 million.
“The success of Black Adam is truly a dream come true,” Hiram Garcia of Johnson’s Seven Bucks production company said in a statement to Deadline. “Our goal with this film was to establish several new characters in the DCEU that would give us an opportunity, in success, to really expand the universe, but most importantly we wanted to take care of the fans. We’ve been listening to their feedback for years and we were determined to give them what they wanted.”
