Hollywood is a risky but rewarding business if done right. With tough competition all around, it is not easy for any movie to make big revenue and reach a certain milestone. However, certain movies have not only made mass appeal to the fans but have also successfully managed to enter the billion-dollar club. The list is short yet elite and is filled with worthy names such as Avengers: Infinity War, Barbie, The Lord of the Rings, Titanic,
and a few more, with Avatar
sitting on top. It looks like for this year, A Minecraft Movie
is all set to enter the billion-dollar club with a spectacular business.
Released on 4th April with a budget of $150 million, the movie is expected to bring in big bucks, many times bigger than its initial investment. It made more than $52 million on its opening day, which also included previews, and in its debut weekend, the movie is expected to cross the mark of $140 million in the country and $300 million globally. But according to fans, the figure could also reach $1 billion.
