Marvel's Black Widow will finally hit theaters and Disney+ via Premier Access on July 9, and analysts are predicting the movie will take in $140 million over the release weekend. According to Deadline, that number represents a global audience that's been forced to wait nearly 15 months for the movie to finally come out.

Conservatively, also according to Deadline, Disney itself is "only" projecting a $75 million take from a stateside audience alone. While nobody knows yet whether moviegoing as we knew it before the pandemic will quite rebound, one strong point of comparison is the latest Fast and Furious--F9, which had a staggered theatrical release around the globe, internationally took in $250 million in roughly three weeks.

But these numbers hardly make for direct or even easy comparisons--they're just proof that people are going back to the movies. The big difference between Black Widow and F9 is that $203 million of the latter's revenue stated above was from China, alone. As of this writing, China--the biggest Marvel market in the world--doesn't have a release date for Black Widow.
