By Last week, Furious 7 crossed a billion (with a b) dollars worldwide over 17 days. That makes it Universal’s first film in history to cross that mark through its first run in theaters. Also, it’s now the fastest (heh) to reach it before previous record holders Avatar, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2, and The Avengers at 19 days.
Shine on you crazy diamond you. I still haven’t seen it myself though and I fear I never will.
Hit the jump for the box office performances for the 4/20 weekend.
