LOS ANGELES (AP) — Marvel’s first family has finally found box office gold. “The Fantastic Four: First Steps,” the first film about the superheroes made under the guidance of Kevin Feige and the Walt Disney Co., earned $118 million in its first weekend in 4,125 North American theaters, according to studio estimates Sunday.

First Steps is entering a critical phase at the box office as it approaches its second weekend. Following a strong $117.6 million opening, the film now faces a projected drop of up to 60%, a key test for its momentum.
