“Furious 7” is far from its title after seeing its box office numbers. The speed demon, daredevil film set a box office record and totally shattered its competition and its bank accounts.
As if we expected anything less, the series soared to new heights, leaps, and gears with their 7th installment of the legendary series. Furious 7 broke the record for the best opening of all-time for the month of April. Not only did the film break the record, it pretty much set it on fire and buried the ashes. Furious 7 brought in a slap-your-mama $143.6 million domestically and over $300 million worldwide. That covers the $190 million spent to create the project.
The previous record was held by Captain America: The Winter Soldier which was set last year at $95 million. I guess the “winter solider” caught a numb shoulder along that shredded road. It even left skid marks on its own series feature. “Fast and Furious 6” brought in $97 million on its opening week back in 2013.
Is it safe to say we can expect an 8th installment?
