It is now the sixth biggest Marvel movie of all time - behind The Avengers (2012), Avengers: Infinity War (2018), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Black Panther (2018), and Iron Man 3 (2013), though it will surely move up that list before long. With just one weekend on the books so far, Endgame already has the 18th-largest box office gross of all time. And Variety points out that Endgame also reached the $1 billion mark faster than any other film in history, doing it in only five days (it’s a pattern, but Infinity War held that record previously as well, reaching $1 billion in 11 days). ( Avengers: Infinity War held the record previously, having opened to $640 million worldwide in 2018.) It also had the biggest domestic opening in history ( Infinity War also held that record previously, at $250 million).
To put that astronomical figure in perspective, Endgame had the biggest worldwide opening in history. Avengers: Endgame, which marks the end of Marvel’s 11-year narrative known as the Infinity Saga, grossed $1.2 billion worldwide in its opening weekend, including $350 million domestically, breaking all kinds of records in the process. The end of an era for the Avengers has kicked off a new one for box office successes.
