After dominating the Japanese box office this summer, the first Demon Slayer: Infinity Castle movie is also breaking records in the US.
With weekend projections at $70 million, the film is set to become the biggest ever domestic box office launch by any anime or international film. The new film has broken the record set by Pokémon: The First Movie almost thirty years ago, and has surpassed all previous Demon Slayer movies, including the record-breaking Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba – The Movie: Mugen Train.
