The Hollywood Reporter shared that the flick has been tweeted about more than 35 million times, beating out previous record holders Star Wars: The Force Awakens and The Last Jedi, which have now been bumped to second and third place, respectively.
The entertainment source also reports that Black Panther is the first film since Avatar to top the North American box office five weekends in a row, grossing more than $607 million domestically and $1.2 billion worldwide.
Black Panther topped off their record-breaking opening weekend with a $201.8 million debut, which, according to CNN, was the fifth biggest box office opening debut of all-time.
It comes as no surprise that Black Panther has drawn crowds of people to see it. Slated to be one of the biggest and most anticipated movies of 2018, the movie has been considered a trailblazer by many.
With the character of King T'Challa being Marvel's first black superhero and the film having a majority black cast, fans have been excited about the movie because it is something that we haven't gotten a chance to see in the Marvel Universe.
