"Captain Marvel" is the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe movie to hit a huge box-office milestone.
The movie reached $1 billion at the worldwide box office this week, joining six other MCU movies. "Avengers: Infinity War" even made $2 billion, and is one of only four movies to ever do so.
"Captain Marvel" fought off online trolls, which launched a campaign to tank its Rotten Tomatoes audience score, to become a global phenomenon. The next MCU movie, "Avengers: Endgame," will likely join this club and shatter box-office records. Among them, it's projected to open with the biggest debut weekend of all time, beating "Infinity War."
