Back after 19 years, the fourth installment of the Indiana Jones franchise has hit gold!
Since opening Thursday, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull has raked in an estimated $311 million around the world Reuters reported on Monday.
It marked the second biggest Memorial Day weekend opening in history, behind only Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End which made $153 million domestically from Thursday to Monday last year.
'Adults really drove this opening. This is one of their favorite franchises and they couldn't wait to take their kids with them,' Rob Moore, president of Paramount Worldwide Distribution told the Reuters.
The first three Indiana Jones flicks pulled in $1.2 billion worldwide.
Crystal Skull, directed by Steven Spielberg, stars Harrison Ford as a whip-cracking archaeologist.
Ford revealed Tom Selleck was originally cast in the role of Indiana Jones.
'He was cast but he had a previous contract for Magnum P.I.,' Ford, 65, told Extra in an interview Monday.
