It was the final film in the Avengers Infinity Saga franchise. After the shocking end of Infinity War, where our heroes lost against the Mad Titan, Thanos, fans waited with bated breath for Endgame. Its release was not just any film, but a global event uniting all MCU fans. The emotions ran high as it was portrayed as a farewell to the OG Avengers, with Robert Downey Jr‘s Iron Man dying, bringing his character arc to a full circle. No film in this genre has recreated the same magic as Endgame.
A $1 billion+ opening like never before
The opening weekend numbers are unreal for Avengers: Endgame! The film reportedly opened with a staggering $1.2 billion worldwide, the biggest global opening in box-office history. In North America, it collected around $357 million, while international markets, especially China’s massive contribution, turned the release into a worldwide cinematic event.
