LOS ANGELES (AP) — The sky's the limit for James Bond's "Skyfall."
The 23rd Bond film hauled in a franchise-record $87.8 million in its first weekend at U.S. theaters.
According to distributor Sony, adding $2.2 million from Thursday night previews at large-format theaters, "Skyfall" has taken in $90 million domestically.
That lifts the worldwide total for "Skyfall" to around half a billion dollars once its weekend haul is counted overseas, where the film began rolling out in late October. As of last Thursday, "Skyfall" had rung up nearly $350 million internationally.
The third installment starring Daniel Craig as British super-spy Bond, "Skyfall" outdid the $67.5 million U.S. debut of 2008's "Quantum of Solace," the franchise's previous best opening.
"Skyfall" more than doubled the $40.8 million debut of Craig's first Bond film, 2006's "Casino Royale."
