Avengers: Endgame retakes title as top-grossing film
Marvel's Avengers: Endgame reclaims the box office crown with $2.9255B worldwide See how its re-release edged past Avatar in a volatile summer for theaters
Marvel's Avengers: Endgame has again become the highestgrossing movie of all time worldwide, not adjusted for inflation, after a recent theatrical rerelease pushed it slightly past Avatar.
The Disney film has now earned about $2.9255 billion US, compared with Avatar's $2.9237 billion US. The shift marks the second time Endgame has overtaken James Cameron's 2009 film, following earlier boxoffice backandforth driven by rereleases.
The article also notes that the change comes during an uneven period for movie theaters. While this summer brought strong overall ticket sales, several bigbudget releases underperformed, showing how unpredictable the box office has become.
