GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2 Retains #1 Spot in Second Weekend, Passes $600M Worldwide

Marvel Studios’ Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 formally kicked off the summer season last weekend with a $146.5 million opening weekend in North America. This cements the sequel as the studio’s latest box office smash. This weekend, the film easily held on to the top spot again, despite a couple of new releases.

Via The Hollywood Reporter, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 grossed an estimated $63 million this weekend, about 57% down from last week. This puts it well ahead of this week’s two new releases, Snatched ($17.5 million) and King Arthur: Legend of the Sword ($14.7 million).

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 has now grossed $246.2 million domestically and $384.4 million, bringing its worldwide total to $630.6 million. Currently, it ranks #9 on the list of highest grossing MCU films, both worldwide and domestically. But the film should only go higher and higher over the next few weeks.

Stay tuned for more box office updates as we have them.
