Avengers: Endgame

A film from 2019 won the American box office this weekend, beating three new wide releases. And the animated film that opened at 100 per cent on Rotten Tomatoes finished fifth with 12.8 million dollars — the lowest number any tracker had it at.

Box Office Mojo has already built the row. Every dollar Avengers: Endgame takes from Thursday's re-release will be added to its lifetime total — and the $124.3 million gap to Avatar was never a like-for-like comparison anyway.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day is $1.5 million from the all-time North American record. One outlet has already declared it crossed, and another named the wrong film as the record holder.

Avengers: Endgame returns to cinemas on 25 September as Endgame: Encore, with roughly four minutes of new footage and a look at Doomsday. Disney has run this play before, with this exact film, and it did not work then either.

The US summer box office sits at $4.598 billion, $158M short of summer 2013's all-time record with eight days left to run. Rentrak thinks it may fall $18M–$22M short. Either way, the record it is chasing is a nominal-dollar record — and the shape of the two seasons could not be more different.

After vaulting past $1.2 billion, Spider-Man: Brand New Day is charging toward an even bigger box office milestone this weekend.
