The title role, played by Robert Pattinson, has now grossed more than $300 million domestically and more than $598 million worldwide.

The Batman continued swinging from the rooftops in its third weekend with a $36.7 million total.

It is currently on track to pass $500-million domestically, and it’s just shy of the $600-million milestone.
The Batman continued swinging from the rooftops in its third weekend, earning $36.6 million domestically and $51 million internationally.

Warner Bros. and director Matt Reeves have been able to capitalize on this trend, and the film is on its way to making the superhero genre even more popular. The movie is the first superhero movie to break that milestone in China, and it’s set to make history this year.

The movie’s third weekend grosses have surpassed last summer’s record-breaking The Green Knight, which soared to a $6.79 million debut in 2,790 theaters. Although X has suffered from a lagging third weekend, it is still the sixth highest debut in A24’s history. However, the horror film industry hasn’t seen this kind of success in years.
Rupert Thorne and his friend Silver St. Cloud continue driving across the state in rainy and dark conditions. As they drive through the city, they pick up a hitchhiker.

So the Batman and Silver St. Cloud’s first meeting is a memorable one.
The Batman’s fourth-place performance this weekend is a testament to its success in the market. When it comes to re-releases, it is the eighth highest film of all time domestically. Its success is not surprising, as the Batman has a long history of being one of the most beloved films of all time. It’s no wonder that it has remained in the top ten for so long.
