Black Widow is heading to be the top grosser in the US post the pandemic as it chases down the numbers of Fast & Furious 9. The film would have been the first $200 million film post the pandemic but it had a almost simultaneous release on Disney Plus which has no doubt hit business.

The film stands at around $143 million after its first two weeks while Fast & Furious 9 is at $158 million after four weeks. After two weeks Fast & Furious 9 was at $130 million so Black Widow as a $13 million if we compare similar stages.

Fast & Furious 9 has shown good holds as last weekend it only dropped around 33% and if this trend continues then in the final run the gap between Widow and Furious may only be $5-8m also depending on how Black Widow holds. The covid19 cases are also rising in US  and it remains to be seen how that affects the box office.

Black Widow also got the advantage of parts of Canada opening up in the second weekend which was also a factor for F9 but at a lower level. Both Black Widow and Fat & Furious 9 have a shot at hitting the $175 million mark. The top five films in US / Canada post the pandemic are as follows.

1. Fast & Furious 9 - $158m (4 weeks)

2. A Quiet Place Part 2 - $156m (8 weeks)

3. Black Widow - $143m (2 weeks)

4. Godzilla Vs Kong - $100 million

5. Cruella - $84 million (8 weeks)
