Marvel Studios has made an announcement about ‘Avengers: Endgame’ getting a second theatrical release, in September 2026, alongside two new MCU films, ‘Avengers: Doomsday,’ and ‘Spider-Man: Brand-New Day.’ Many believe that the re-release of ‘Endgame’ is not only to help drive excitement and interest in the new films but also to attract nostalgia and new fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Current Ranking of Endgame and Projections of Future Rankings
When ‘Endgame’ was first released in 2019, it grossed over $2.8 billion (US), making it one of the highest-grossing films to date. However, due to the number of times that ‘Avatar’ has been re-released, ‘Endgame’ now ranks just under ‘Avatar,’ which is approximately $126 million (US) higher than ‘Endgame.’
How Endgame Could Help Reach Number One Again
Since Endgame is already close to Avatar’s overall gross, even a minimal box office resurgence (due mostly to audience demand for theatres and renewed interest from audiences prior to the release of new MCU films) could be enough to push Endgame ahead of Avatar in total box office gross. If it does return to the No.1 position, it would also be the first film to gross over $3 billion (US) worldwide.
Impacts of this Announcement on Fans and Box Office Records
For fans, this is another chance to see the last movie that wraps up the first ten years of the MCU in theaters. For studios, this helps generate interest in new movies, as well as harnesses nostalgia from earlier movies.
If the movie continues to do well at the box office, we could see huge shifts in global box office rankings of the highest-grossing movies in history.
