In July, "Fast and Furious 7" was released.
This movie tells the story of the grievances between Don's team and the hacker leader Cypher.
There is actually nothing new in the story, it is all routine, but the scene is spectacular enough.

Coupled with the popularity built by the previous six works, "Fast and Furious 7" topped the weekly box office rankings as soon as it was released.
The final box office in North America was US$450 million and the global box office was US$1.24 billion.

In August, Black Panther was released.
This is the second African-American superhero solo film in the United States, the first being "Blade".

The storyline of "Black Panther" is the same as the original version, and even the casting has not changed much.

Because of this, it achieved very good box office and reputation after its release, and was even nominated for the Academy Award for Best Picture.
