A reissue with new post‑credit scenes and premium IMAX and Infinity Vision screenings has pushed Endgame's lifetime gross to about $2.88 billion, previewing the studio's build‑up to Avengers: Doomsday.

Overview

  • The 'Endgame: Encore' reissue opened to an estimated $86 million worldwide, including about $26 million in the U.S. and Canada and $60 million in international markets.
  • Disney added new material after the credits and fan introductions to encourage repeat viewings and used IMAX plus its Infinity Vision certified premium‑large‑format auditoriums for the event.
  • The reissue raised Endgame's cumulative global total to roughly $2.88 billion, narrowing the gap with Avatar to about $39 million for the all‑time box office lead.
  • The Encore return outperformed most new releases that weekend, with Sony's Resident Evil holding second place at about $23.3 million in its second weekend.
  • Local markets showed strong turnout — Peru reported about 63,000 spectators on the first day — and the reissue also serves as a commercial and promotional bridge to the December release of Avengers: Doomsday.
