Avengers: Endgame tracking an insane $840 million global box office opening weekend

March 29, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Last year, Marvel Studios scored the biggest box office opening in history, with Avengers: Infinity War pulling in $640.4 million – a hugely impressive feat given that this didn’t include the highly lucrative Chinese market, where it opened two weeks later with $199.3 million.

Well, with its follow-up Avengers: Endgame now granted an April 24th release, putting it in line with the domestic launch on April 26, analysts are predicting that the closing chapter of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s ‘Infinity Saga’ is set to debut with an insane $840 million worldwide.

Avengers: Infinity War went on to earn $2.05 billion at the global box office, becoming only the fourth movie ever to reach the $2 billion mark after Avatar ($2.788 billion), Titanic ($2.188 billion) and Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($2.068 billion).

If ever a movie is going to challenge James Cameron’s crown as the box office King of the World, then it seems it may be this one.

The grave course of events set in motion by Thanos that wiped out half the universe and fractured the Avengers ranks compels the remaining Avengers to take one final stand in Marvel Studios’ grand conclusion to twenty-two films, “Avengers: Endgame.”

Avengers: Endgame stars Robert Downey Jr. (Iron Man), Chris Evans (Captain America), Mark Ruffalo (Hulk), Chris Hemsworth (Thor), Scarlett Johansson (Black Widow), Jeremy Renner (Hawkeye), Josh Brolin (Thanos), Brie Larson (Captain Marvel), Paul Rudd (Scott Lang), Don Cheadle (War Machine), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Chadwick Boseman (Black Panther), Tom Holland (Spider-Man), Sebastian Stan (Winter Soldier), Anthony Mackie (Falcon), Paul Bettany (Vision), Elizabeth Olsen (Scarlet Witc h), Benedict Cumberbatch (Doctor Strange), Benedict Wong (Wong), Chris Pratt (Star-Lord), Zoe Saldana (Gamora), Dave Bautista (Drax), Bradley Cooper (Rocket), Vin Diesel (Groot), Karen Gillan (Nebula), Pom Klementieff (Mantis), Tom Hiddleston (Loki), Gwyneth Paltrow (Pepper Potts), Evangeline Lilly (The Wasp), Letitia Wright (Shuri), Tessa Thompson (Valkyrie), Jon Favreau (Happy Hogan), Tilda Swinton (The Ancient One) and Frank Grillo (Crossbones), as well as Hiroyuki Sanada (The Wolvervine) and Katherine Langford (13 Reasons Why).
