At the time of writing, filmgoers in China are still in the midst of their first Avengers: Endgame screenings. But even before the movie first hit theaters in the Middle Kingdom, the Avengers: Infinity War sequel was already breaking commercial records.
With a runtime of 3 hours and 58 seconds, there’s been some speculation lately that the opening weekend gross of Avengers: Endgame will be limited slightly by the number of showings that the film can get per day. But while there are only so many times that one screen can show the Avengers: Infinity War sequel over the course of a single weekend, it sounds like theaters are making up the difference in a big way.
Last night, Avengers: Endgame had its world premiere in Los Angeles, which was quickly followed by a flood of enthusiastic and spoiler-free social media responses.
The upcoming Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker is expected to serve as the final outing for quite a few series regulars. But while most of the characters predicted to drop out after this year’s release are Original Trilogy stars like Luke and Leia, relative newcomer John Boyega has suggested that Finn’s story might also be coming to a close.
Last night, Avengers: Endgame had its long-awaited world premiere in Los Angeles, and the social media response was about as positive as anyone could’ve hoped for. Among the various glowing Twitter takes, one common theme you’ll notice is that the movie is said to be a real tearjerker, and according to multiple sources, Marvel took it upon themselves to hand out tissues at the screening.
Though Avengers: Endgame is still a few days away from release, it’s in the nature of the Marvel fan to keep asking, “What’s next?” And so, one of the biggest questions around the upcoming flick is what to expect from the film’s post-credits. But while the Avengers: Infinity War sequel finally had its world premiere last night in Los Angeles, it seems that attendees at the event are in no position to share the details.
In the final week of March, Marvel dropped a generous batch of Avengers: Endgame character posters online that not only teased the returning heroes, but also honored the memories of many of the characters who passed away last year.
While Marvel Studios is reluctant to officially announce any new movies beyond this year’s Spider-Man: Far From Home, there are already at least half a dozen films that we know to be on the way after Avengers: Endgame. And in a recent poll conducted by Rotten Tomatoes, fans voted Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 as their most anticipated of the lot.
Four days before the release of Avengers: Endgame, co-directors Anthony and Joe Russo have issued one more warning not to spoil the plot of the year’s biggest blockbuster.
