Marvel's next big superhero movie, Eternals, is tracking for a big opening at the box office that is yet another sign of strength and resurgence of the traditional moviegoing experience.

Deadline reports that Eternals picked up $2.6 million in pre-sales over its first 24 hours, which is 86% better than Shang-Chi ($1.4 million) and 30% better than Black Widow ($2 million). Tickets for Eternals went on sale on Monday and all comparisons are for the first 24 hours of sales.

The site said AMC's pre-sales alone for the first 24 hours are the "largest day one sales so far this year."
