Marvel Reissues 'Avengers: Endgame' as Encore With IMAX Doomsday Tease

The rerelease is being used to funnel audiences toward December's Avengers: Doomsday by selling an exclusive preview in certified premium auditoriums.

Overview

  • Advance bookings for Avengers: Endgame Encore opened on Friday and include IMAX, Disney’s new Infinity Vision certification and other premium formats across India.
  • Marvel says Encore adds about four minutes of footage, a refreshed color grade and a new post‑credits scene that serves as a narrative bridge to Avengers: Doomsday.
  • The new post‑credits scene and the exclusive Doomsday preview will run only in IMAX and Infinity Vision‑certified screens, while standard showings get the bonus footage but not that scene.
  • Early presales in India show strong demand with reports ranging from roughly 7,300 tickets sold in 24 hours to trade estimates of 15,000–25,000 sales and more than 155,000 recorded interests on ticketing platforms.
  • Exhibitors and analysts say the tiered premium plan could lift opening‑weekend receipts for the reissue and boost marketing and merchandise momentum ahead of Doomsday’s scheduled December 18 release.
