Skyfall is now Britain’s biggest film of 2012

Post by The Sweeney »

In just 12 days, the new Bond movie has overtaken The Dark Knight Rises at the box office.

Skyfall has already become Britain’s biggest film of 2012. In just 12 days, the new Bond movie has taken a whopping £57 million at the UK box office – more than The Dark Knight Rises (£56.2 million since July) and The Avengers (£51.6 million since April).

That total is enough to make Skyfall the most successful Bond movie ever in the UK, overtaking the £55.6 million earned by 2006′s Casino Royale.
