‘Captain America’ Flexes Muscles at the Box Office

“Captain America: Civil War” surged to a $181.8 million opening in the U.S. and Canada over the weekend, making it the fifth-highest debut in box-office history. The film also featured fan favorite Marvel characters such as Iron Man, Black Widow, and even Spider Man. Since Marvel studios is owned by Disney, the company received both profit from Civil War and their other recent film "The Jungle Book". The film essentially benefits the Marvel brand for both now and later because Civil War paves the way for future Marvel movies like Black Panther.
