With an opening weekend that also earned over $100 million domestically, The Fate of the Furious managed to earn over $532 million dollars at the worldwide box office. This makes it the new record-holder, surpassing The Force Awakens. I was driving alone in my car at the time I heard this news reported on NPR, and couldn't help but say "Wow!" out loud. Congratulations to the team, and thank you to all the fans who showed up for opening weekend.
