According to Comicbook, “Thor: Love and Thunder” has scored the third-highest box opening this year and the largest yet for a Thor movie. Though box office numbers are on the lower end for Marvel, the film will bring in $143 million in just its first three days.

This is a career-high for Taika Waititi, who also directed “Thor: Ragnarok” for Marvel Studios, as well as other films like “Jojo Rabbit” and “What We Do in the Shadows.” The release of “Thor: Love and Thunder” on July 8 has proved to be the highest-grossing opening for Taika Waititi and actor Natalie Portman.

“Thor: Love and Thunder” takes a refreshing step back from the normal Marvel clichés; its success suggests that variety might be the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
