Can you tell me what the weekend box office gross was for the Dark Knight?
The Dark Knight still has the opening weekend box office record… but by a bigger margin. According to Variety, The Dark Knight’s final opening weekend tally turned out to be $158.3 million, $3 million more than the initial estimate of $155.3 million. The Dark Knight also broke records for the highest single day and highest opening day with a whopping $67.8 million. Part of that total was from midnight screenings, which accounted for $18.5 million, which itself broke the midnight screening record held by Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith’s $16.9 million from midnight shows in 2005. The Dark Knight was also released in a record-breaking rollout in 4,336 theaters and it’s said that the Christopher Nolan film could gross as much as $220 million by the end of the week.
