Like Everyone can expect it (We got that rightbut we won’t pat ourselves exactly on the back), the wicked He lost his somewhat surprising spot at the top of the box office three weeks later thanks to his debut Doctor Strange in a multiverse of madnesswhich opened to $185 million this weekend. Not only is it the highest-grossing debut of the year, but it’s more than the total gross of any other weekend this year – meaning it made more money this weekend than every other movie combined made in any other weekend.
