On track to beat Chris Hemsworth’s MCU debut, Thor!
Chris Hemsworth became globally famous in the MCU as Thor, the God of Thunder. Her first film, Thor, was released in 2011. Thor collected $449.32 million in its worldwide run, including a $181.03 million domestic haul. The Fantastic Four: First Steps is now less than $6 million away from surpassing the first Thor movie. It will thus move up the MCU’s highest-grossers list worldwide, further away from the bottom.
Other MCU films that have been beaten by First Steps include The Marvels, Black Widow, and Eternals. The film was released on July 25 and is tracking to earn around $510 million in its worldwide run. According to industry rules, The Fantastic Four: First Steps needs $500 million to break even.
