The Austin Abrams-starrer reboot is on track to beat the worldwide total of a Captain America movie very soon. The video game adaptation continues its glorious run. Keep scrolling for the deets.

While it is a popular film franchise, it does not command the same scale or box office pull as Marvel movies. Therefore, whenever its films outperform major tentpole releases, it is considered an impressive achievement. The movie is now hit with the arrival of new movies. The horror reboot is the franchise’s all-time biggest entry.

According to Box Office Mojo, Resident Evil collected $60.1 million on its opening weekend at the box office in North America. It has crossed the $400 million milestone at the worldwide box office.

On track to beat Captain America: Brave New World

Captain America: Brave New World is the 4th installment in the Captain America franchise. It is the continuation of the TV show The Falcon and the Winter Soldier.
