Race to the win! Furious 7 broke box office records with its huge opening this past weekend.
The hotly anticipated action flick hit theaters on Friday, April 3, and quickly shattered previous records for the entire month of April, as well as those of its distributor Universal.

Furious 7 brought in some $67 million on its opening day, going on to reach a stateside total of $143.62 million for the weekend. The latest Fast & Furious movie dominated abroad as well, brining in an additional $240.4 million to reach a worldwide opening weekend gross of $384.02 million.

The impressive haul gave Furious 7 the title of ninth-biggest U.S. opening and fourth-biggest worldwide opening weekend. Internationally, the film fell only to previous grosses from 2011's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, 2009's Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and 2012's Marvel's The Avengers. The international total will only increase in the coming weeks, as Furious 7 has yet to see release in such massive markets as China, Japan, and Russia.

The record-breaking movie is now the highest-grossing debut for Universal Pictures, and the most successful installment in the entire Fast & Furious franchise. The high-octane flick generated added interest as the late Paul Walker's final contribution to the film series.
