Men in Black 3 increased again this week, to $352 million overseas to date (up solidly from $275 million last week). Snow White and the Huntsman also grew, up to $84 million overseas (from $39 million last week). Madagascar 3 enters the chart with $76 million overseas, while the other North American opener this weekend, Prometheus, now stands at $92 million overseas to date (although keep in mind it has been playing internationally for a few weeks already in many territories). Both new openers have great international potential, with $375-400 million possible for Madagascar 3 overseas, putting its ultimate worldwide gross around $600 million. Prometheus could gross $350 million overseas, putting its worldwide total around $500 million. Marvel’s The Avengers now totals $824 million overseas (up from $803 million last week). The overseas total could max out around $875 million, placing the worldwide Avengers total just under $1.500 billion.
