As is usually the case as long as there is Marvel’s premiere, The Spanish box office receives a superhero impulseeven at the expense of monopolizing much of the cake and leaving with less opportunities the others.
May begins with good foot, although without throwing rockets, with a slight climb with respect to last weekend and our top 20 above 4 million euros in total. The Spanish weekend box office between May 2 and 4 records 4.32 millionaccording to estimated Comscore data. But be careful, this figure must be added the three million between Wednesday, April 30 and Thursday, May 1, since being bridge, the premieres of the week arrived before.
‘Thunderbolts*’ opens at number 1 with 1.36 million provisional euros, being present in 319 cinemas in the Spanish territory. Again, to this we must add the raised between Wednesday and Thursday, specifically 1.05 million, which Leave a total opening of 2.41 million euros for Marvel antiheroes led by Florence Pugh. This gives him the fourth best premiere than the year in Spain, behind ‘A Minecraft movie’, ‘Captain America: Brave New World’ and ‘Snow White’.
The film directed by Jake Schreier is like, but is not sweeping at the box office. In fact, its premiere remains slightly below the previous film launch of Marvel Studios, ‘Captain America: Brave New World’. If ‘Thunderbolts* has been released with 2.4 million in four days, ‘Brave New World’ did it in February with 2.5 million only with the weekend computation. However, ‘Thunderbolts*’ has greater acceptance by the public and a curious post-estrane advertising impulse. It remains to be seen if mouth mouth and marketing stratagems work in the coming weeks.
Being the only billboard film that exceeds € 2,000 per copy, ‘Thunderbolts*’ monopolizes 32% of the total collection of the weekend.

The extraordinary performance of ‘conclave’, which continues to hold on to the top 10 before the imminent choice of the new Pope after the death of Francisco I. Waiting to see how the Royal Conconclave develops, the film starring Ralph Fiennes records the largest increase of the week with 47% with respect to the previous one and is located in 8 with € 175,000 and a total that exceeds € 450,000.
Finally, we must point out the fascinating performance of ‘the sinners’, because despite staying very far from the box office phenomenon that is in the United States, In Spain it seems that mouth mouth is working. Ryan Coogler’s acclaimed movie leaves its fangs in number 6 and descends only 15%, exceeding one thousand euros on a copy and adding 246,000 euros. Its total is already at 1.73 million.
