AIW posted a record $25 million gross for an April Monday but........
Deadline
For Mondays overall, Infinity War currently ranks ninth, well below the Mondays of Star Wars: The Force Awakens (No. 2, $40.1M, Dec. 21, 2015) and Rogue One (No. 3 $32M, Dec. 26, 2016). This is largely because those films benefited greatly from schools being off during the holidays. Yesterday there weren’t any K-12 schools off, and only 7% colleges were on break according to ComScore. The fact that there weren’t any schools off on Friday, didn’t impact Infinity War‘s weekend business, however, it does slow down Monday’s turnstiles a tad. Still, you can’t knock a $25M Monday. That’s the envy of any rival studio.
Running domestic total to date for Infinity War is $282.9M. Force Awakens holds the record for crossing $300M in five days, and odds are that Infinity War will tie that feat today.
