According to The Indian Express, the superhero film has collected an estimated $205.1 million in North America alone, as of this weekend. Internationally, it has grossed a massive $410.9 million.

Marvel’s other single-character movie debuts include The Incredible Hulk with $263 million, Thor with $450 million, Captain America: The First Avenger with $370 million and Ant-Man with $519 million.
Meanwhile, Cumberbatch says he loves being at home and misses his family when out for work. The Doctor Strange actor said he doesn’t feel like a big Hollywood star as he is very down to earth and loves simple things. “I don’t think of myself as this huge Hollywood star. I have a new family and I have close friends who have known me since I first started and don’t think of me like that,” he said recently. “They’re always happy to remind me who I am, which is good. I don’t find it difficult to stay grounded. Every time I come back to London, I love the feeling! It’s my home town and I’m very happy with my creature comforts. I’m actually quite a homely person, the 40-year-old added.
