As of right now, Captain America: Civil War has a worldwide haul of $991 million, but it will cross the $1 billion mark a little later today (or by the time you're reading this article). The first of Marvel's Phase 3 releases become the highest grossing movie on Wednesday when it pushed past Disney Zootopia to take the top spot, and it's now the fourth of their movies to reach this impressive benchmark. 

Captain America: Civil War hit $1 billion after just 24 days, the same time it took Avengers: Age of Ultron last year (that went on to make over $1.4 billion). Iron Man 3 grossed $1.2 billion in 2013, while The Avengers made over $1.5 billion the year before that. It's going to very interesting to see where exactly this one falls between all of those, especially with X-Men: Apocalypse around the corner.

With $314.3 million in North America and $676.7 million overseas, Captain America: Civil War has been a huge hit for Marvel, and they've emerged triumphant over their Distinguished Competition...

@SageMode - Too bad, Thor won't hit a billion. Spidey has a better chance. I do want to say that each of Raimi's Spidey movies hit a billion after inflation.

@Luminus - I'm not trying to start shit but this movie(which I loved) had literally nothing to do with the comics. Do you just mean the characters personalities?

@ThorKilsen - Respecting source material and completely following source material are two different things. You can respect characters, their relationships, change story lines to what works in their own universe. Im happy they didnt follow the Civil War comics. Tony was way out of character in that

@KillWolfhead - so, yes? Yeah. A yes would've sufficed.
