Avengers: Endgame Returns to Theaters as Endgame: Encore

The re-release pairs new footage with limited LED Iron Man helmet and Nano Gauntlet popcorn buckets to boost ticket and concession sales.

Overview

  • Marvel and Disney are reissuing Avengers: Endgame as "Avengers: Endgame Encore," which the studio says will include new footage and additional material beyond the 2019 release.
  • Theatrical chains and retailers have revealed collectible LED popcorn buckets styled as an Iron Man Mark 85 helmet and a Nano/Infinity Gauntlet tied to the Encore run.
  • Regal has confirmed the two themed buckets will be sold at select locations while Cinemark and Marcus list similar LED items as coming soon.
  • Fandango is offering a $49.99 bundle that pairs one movie ticket with one popcorn bucket and provides shipping and delivery windows for the bucket.
  • The buckets feature specific lighting and effects, including glowing eyes, an "I Love You 3000" projection and illuminated Infinity Stones, and availability will likely be limited by theater-by-theater stock which could affect fan access and concession revenue.
