Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness has already amassed a significant total at the box office.

According to Fandango, the Marvel Cinematic Universe blockbuster has added another $61 million in its second weekend for a domestic total of $291.9 million. These figures surpass the lifetime domestic gross of recent Marvel films, including the first Doctor Strange ($232 million), Venom ($213 million), Logan ($226 million) and Captain America: The Winter Soldier ($259 million). The film appears to be on track to outperform Iron Man 2 ($312 million) as well.

Despite the triumphs, the Doctor Strange sequel recorded a massive drop at the domestic box office, a sharp 81 percent fall from its first weekend collections. Its global take of $688.1 million, at the time of writing, is still significant, but the drop is the third-largest for an MCU film, behind last year’s Black Widow and Spider-Man: No Way Home, which both fell by 68 percent.

The Multiverse of Madness faced issues in its release in several territories, including China, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Egypt, mainly for the inclusion of LGBTQ+ characters. Disney CEO Bob Chapek addressed the difficulties relating to China release, saying, “We’ve got a long track record of success and a strong fan base for our brands and franchises in this market… We’ll continue to submit our films for release. And it is worth noting, I think, though, that at the time that we are having some difficulty in getting our films in China, that Doctor Strange did extraordinarily well.”

The Disney head further expressed, “So we’re pretty confident that even without China, if it were to be that we continue to have difficulties in getting titles in there, that it doesn’t really preclude our success given the relatively lower take rate that we get on the box office in China than we do across the rest of the world.”

Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness is playing in theaters now.
