However, most analysts are predicting at least $230 million from Infinity War over the next few days, perhaps more – Deadline are reporting a $45 million opening day in the States, which ties with Star Wars: The Last Jedi ($45 million) and falls behind The Force Awakens ($57 million).
Fellow Disney production The Force Awakens currently holds the highest US opening weekend, taking $248 million (unadjusted for inflation).
With Avengers: Infinity War now in cinemas, analysts are going loopy attempting to predict how well the blockbuster will fair at the box office.
Infinity War has a greater chance at taking home the best opening weekend for a superhero movie ever.
