After another phenomenal domestic and international weekend that saw Marvel Studio's Black Panther setting new box office records, the 13-day global cume of $704 million makes it possible to estimate (with a decent degree of likelihood, but obviously not a 100% certainty) what the final minimum and maximum box office figures could be for director Ryan Coogler's acclaimed blockbuster. And aside from outlier extremes, the calculations seem to confirm what many of us have suspected for days -- Black Panther will surpass $1 billion at the global box office. Let's take a look at how the domestic, foreign, and worldwide low-end and high-end numbers look.

First, on the lower end of realistic outcomes, Black Panther will add at least an additional $125 million to its current domestic box office. That would bring the domestic cume to approximately $525+/- million. Separately, the low-end realistic additional box office revenue the picture could add in all foreign markets is $180 million, to bring its international total to about $484+/- million. So the total worldwide box office in this lower-end scenario would be $1.009 billion. more
