After its release on April 26, Avengers: Endgame shattered opening weekend records with $1.2236 billion globally, including $357.1 million domestically and $866.5 million internationally. The film crossed the $1 billion mark in a stunning five days, and then the $2 billion mark in just 11 days.

“A huge congratulations to the Marvel Studios and Walt Disney Studios teams, and thank you to the fans around the world who lifted Avengers: Endgame to these historic heights,” says Alan Horn, Co-Chairman and Chief Creative Officer of The Walt Disney Studios. “Of course, even with the passage of a decade, the impact of James Cameron’s Avatar remains as powerful as ever, and the astonishing achievements of both of these films are ongoing proof of the power of movies to move people and bring them together in a shared experience. The talented filmmakers behind these worlds have much more in store, and we look forward to the future of both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and Pandora.”
