The superhero tentpole began rolling out midweek in select international markets before landing in the U.S. on Thursday night.

Disney and Marvel Studios' Black Panther has blasted off overseas with a promising $23.2 million from its first foreign markets.

Black Panther opened in the U.K., Taiwan and Hong Kong on Tuesday, followed by 14 additional markets on Wednesday. So far it is pacing ahead of fellow Marvel pics Doctor Strange, Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy in most markets, although it is too early to draw hard conclusions.

The superhero film debuted to $3.7 million in the U.K, the biggest single-day gross of the year to date.
