The opening day is ahead of Captain America: Civil War ($30m in 2016), Avengers: Age of Ultron($33m in 2015), Transformers: Age of Extinction ($30m in 2014) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($33m in 2016) – which had the biggest opening day for any superhero movie ever in China – Ant-Man and the Wasp($24m), Spider-Man: Homecoming ($21.6m) and Black Panther ($22.7m).
With an opening like this, Venom is probably going to end up earning more at the worldwide box office than Solo: A Star Wars Story ($393 million), Ant-Man and the Wasp ($621m), Justice League ($659m), Amazing Spider-Man 2 ($709m in 2014), Captain America: The Winter Soldier ($714m in 2014) and possibly X-Men: Days of Future Past ($748m in 2014).
