Hello friends Marvel’s iconic superhero is back, and the excitement is real! Captain America 4 Brave New World has finally hit theatres, and fans worldwide are flocking to see what this new chapter holds. But how is it performing at the box office? Let’s dive into the numbers and see if Cap’s latest adventure is soaring high or facing unexpected turbulence.
Worldwide Box Office Performance
Marvel movies have always been box office giants, and Captain America 4 is no exception. So far, the film has grossed $147 million in the USA and $148 million internationally, bringing its total worldwide earnings to $295 million. While this is a solid start, it falls short of Captain America: Civil War (2016), which opened to $180 million in the US alone and went on to rake in a staggering $1.15 billion worldwide. Interestingly, Brave New World’s numbers are similar to Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014), which grossed $714 million globally. It remains to be seen whether this new instalment can pick up the pace and cross the $700 million mark.
India Box Office Collection
The film’s reception in India has been moderate. While Marvel has a dedicated fan base in the country, Captain America 4 has seen lower-than-expected numbers.
- Opening Day: ₹4.5 crore
- Day 2: ₹4 crore
- Day 3: ₹4.25 crore
- Day 4: ₹1.25 crore
- Day 5 & 6: ₹1 crore each
- Day 7: ₹0.7 crore
- First-week total: ₹19.5 crore gross (approx. $2.23 million)
Compared to other Marvel films, Brave New World has opened lower than Doctor Strange: Multiverse of Madness (₹28.35 crore) and Thor: Love and Thunder (₹18.2 crore). However, it remains ahead of John Wick 4 (₹5.1 crore) and The Flash (₹4.65 crore) in terms of opening weekend numbers.
Budget and Financial Outlook
Marvel Studios reportedly invested $180 million (₹1,561 crore) into Captain America 4, making it one of the costliest superhero films. With its current global collection, the film still has a long way to go before turning a major profit. While Marvel movies typically have strong legs due to fan loyalty and international appeal, this one will need steady numbers in the coming weeks to avoid being labelled a disappointment.
How Does It Compare to Other 2024 Blockbusters
This year has been stacked with major Hollywood releases, and here’s how Captain America 4 stacks up against the competition:
- Inside Out 2 – $1.68 billion (Worldwide)
- Deadpool & Wolverine – $1.3 billion
- Despicable Me 4 – $968 million
- Moana 2 – $905 million
- Dune: Part Two – $711 million
- Wicked – $648 million
- Godzilla x Kong – $564 million
Brave New World has a tough road ahead if it wants to match these blockbuster numbers. However, Marvel has a history of picking up steam through word-of-mouth, and the film’s performance in the coming weeks will be crucial. While Captain America 4: Brave New World hasn’t had a record-breaking start, it still has the potential to turn things around. With Marvel’s loyal fanbase, a strong overseas push, and possible post-theatrical earnings from streaming and merchandise, the film’s ultimate success remains to be seen. For now, fans can enjoy the return of Cap in all his shield-swinging glory while keeping an eye on the numbers
