Resulting in overseas gross box office that still falls short of North America, during the same period, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2" achieved $380 million in North America's box office but nearly $1 billion overseas, while "Thor" earned $180 million in North America and $260 million overseas.
Nevertheless, the "Captain America" box office figures still exceeded the expectations of Paramount Pictures and several professional media.
Originally, Paramount's marketing department had predicted that this movie's global box office would be around $360 million.
Currently, the total box office has surpassed $300 million in just ten days, with expectations to reach approximately $480 million, a high likelihood of breaking $500 million, which is over $100 million more than originally anticipated.
"Complete Movie" believes the main reason for this difference lies in Link.
