Harry Potter's 'Deathly Hallows' Makes Box Office Magic

Harry Potter�s 'Deathly Hallows- Part 1' has cast its biggest box-office spell yet with a franchise record $125.1 million domestically over opening weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday.

It has also added $205 million in 54 overseas countries, bringing the film's worldwide total to $330.1 million.

DreamWorks Animation's "Megamind," the No. 1 movie the previous two weekends, has dropped to second place with $16.2 million, raising its three-week total to $109.5 million.

The huge opening bodes well for next July's "Deathly Hallows: Part 2," the eighth and final movie based on J.K. Rowling's seven "Harry Potter" novels. The franchise so far has taken in more than $5.5 billion worldwide.

Warner Bros. has planned to release "Deathly Hallows: Part 2" in 3-D, which should give it a big box-office boost.
