Skyfall named UK’s highest grossing film of all time

It was already the biggest film of the year and the best 007 movie ever in the UK. Now, Skyfall has achieved yet another milestone to become the highest-grossing film ever in the territory, Deadline reported.

In 40 days of release, the 23rd James Bond movie has grossed £94,277,612 ($151,795,059) at the box office to overtake the previous record held by James Cameron’s Avatar, Eon Productions, MGM and Sony Pictures announced.

The Sam Mendes-directed Skyfall opened in 587 British theaters October 26 and has been breaking records ever since.
